Hiya Cybe - thanks for this - and for dobbing me in :)
This internet is a strange and wonderful place. I am communicating with
you
across almost half the world and you are passing my words on to someone
who
was probably only a few miles away from me. Michael says he travels
south to
Dunsborough - That probably means he works in Perth which is where I was
at
the time of the previous communications. You may pass on to Michael that
my
favourite drop of red is Paul Conti's Cab/Sav. It does help when you
know
the oenologist. Paul also makes a very good drop of grappa but don't
tell
the revenooers - - -
I apologise for mis-using his name. I blame the 2002 vintage for the
misdemeanor. That and a very good Margaret River cheddar.
There seem to be all sorts of strangely named Linux O/S's - yes, I will
give
it a try if you would be good enough to pass it on. At the very least I
will
be able to give feedback from an Acer users viewpoint.
Ærchie - now up in Broome and soon to be back in Punmu.

So, there you have it. I will be sending him a Hoary CD as soon as they
arrive here. Thank you for your kind help in this matter.

A: Apart from the fact that viruses are supported by their authors,
use optimized, small code and usually perform well, none.
