When I completed their first survey, there was NOT an option to choose free software...so I guess that means I'm screwed. Will send an email to get out of the "program" and find out how to remove this Microsoft spyware from my computer. :-(

I just signed up yesterday and got the email today. Went through the enrollment process, downloaded the software and then saw that the program of FREE software has been discontinued. See here: http://www.computerworld.com/a...asic&articleId=9052518 Same link; tinyurl...

bob4432: It's the a250y HP Pavilion computer. I bought it about 4 years ago, configuring it online with their top graphics card for a bargain price of $950 . I love the 2 chips and the hyperthreading. Yahoo widgets has a widget which shows the 2 chips use of resources separately and one...

Thanks for all the great advice. Still mulling it over. My "other" case is an aluminum Antec which is HUGE and has 2 big fans and tons of ventilation so I may wind up using it instead. Right now it is our "spare" computer with an older motherboard and AMD chip inside, but I sure like my cool...

Have you noticed that all these web sites devoted to Linux related stuff are nearly always down for the count?? It's kinda hilarious.

Startup Screens for the Zaurus:D Well, I forgot to make it a hot link in my last posting.

Hi, Thought I'd post with something "fun" I have found for the Zaurus...I have the original Sharp ROM. I installed a nifty startup screen by following directions at this web site http://www.mmhart.com/ssz.htm and downloading a premade startup screen...I'm using a big picture of Tux!

Nacs, Nevermind, I found it by backtracking on that FTP server and am downloading it now.

Nacs, That's a relief that it can be found in a single Windows type file, but that link you listed doesn't work!

Nacs, I went to this web site: ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qtopia/snapshots/ and it just looks far too complicated to deal with what with tar.gz files and such. What do you do, download every one of those files and unzip and then what?? Boy, Linux people are used to some pain and trouble...
