[Wynne, Conor]

Use fips, its free, on the linux cd. in the dosutils, i used it to reduce
the owl windows partition to whatever size I wanted. Cool Raoul.
I havent figured out how to get access to exchange from linux yet. Gonna
check out HPs new product - whatever its called.

Oh yeah, ram is mad cheap over in frog. Bought 128 meg for me laptop and me
desktop, pc 100 for 200 squids for both as well as 2 globalwin mad fecker
fans for major cooling power for me bp6
PC mem 128 = 64 quid, laptop 128 = 160. Not bad.
They also had 5 port 100 MBIT hubs for 50 quid, but I was getting ahead of
myself and had to leave the shop, oh yeah, 9 gig Ultra2 scsi for 200 quid!


Oh yeah, they have LINUX all over the gaf. I bought three linux magazines -
very very good too. Got Suse 7, RH7 and Mandrake 7.2, good enough reason.
In Surcouf (computer megastore about twice the size of virgin megastore) the
LINUX stand was right beside the Microsoft one, and yer man was watching
everyone checking out the LINUX stuff and not the MS stuff. Thats a first
for me. The French seem to be more serious about LINUX than the irish. Hmmm.

No, but you *should* be able to quote your Serial No. (and any other proof 
of purchase) to the Manufacturers and they should send you a replacement 
copy or point you at a URL.
