Wow, I will go get some more RAM and install it !! :o)

How marvelous, every new Windows versions just keep forcing you to
upgrade your system, but lovely Linux let's you use your 'old' machines.

Windows : computer = consumable

Long live Linux, long live Ubuntu.

Thanks Jeff, you really just put a banana smile on my face ! :o)))
