Windows XP SP2 on such an underpowered machine? Not a good idea. I guess it comes with Windows 98SE and it might be a good idea to stick to it or use some older version of Linux. BTW, Google for "Toshiba Libretto L1" and your page is the No 2 hit for web pages (not coutning the first advertisement entry). http://www.dvanhorn.org/L1/Index.php PS: the web page returns some errors: Warning: main(/footer.inc): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/dvanhorn/public_html/L1/Index.php on line 11 Warning: main(): Failed opening '/footer.inc' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/dvanhorn/public_html/L1/Index.php on line 11 Xiaofan -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
