Charles,

Sorry..... wrong Linux.  On every list everybody is talking about Lindows.
That's the price for Lindows CD's that can be ordered by the members of
"insiders program" which is $99.  I thought at that price I would get the CD
but it's free with a $10 S&H so I downloaded it.  I'm on DSL and it took
about an hour.
