Re: Laptop question

AAAAARGH! NOT.... STAR OFFICE! True, I'll need another 104Mb to make it
run decently, tho'

Your all right, of course. Any chance of installing by serial cable
though? Thing is I only have £150, and it could take a while to save up
the rest.

Oh, and when I said fast, I didn't expect that fast! The wonder of like
mindedness, eh?

BTW, my monitor seems to be having trouble. When I have a white screen
(eg in Netscape compose), and select a lot, making it black, the screen
changes shape quite dramatically. Now, the monitor is only 2 months old,
so it could be dodgy hardware, but is there a problem known with X11R6
or any video settings (I have a Matrox Mystique 220) which could cause
this. I did have to set up the dot clock manually, so that could be a
problem. I will try it in a different res, and in Windoze (that's what
the drivers were for, after all. PLease don't hate me.)

Let me know, anyhow, if you have any ideas,

Cheers,

Craig
