Hello Bruce,

Just checking on computer recycling site it is around the $150nzd mark.

Not sure if that is 64bit from the quick look.

I guess I will have to try and find money somehow to purchase one.

I had totally overlooked the fact of it not going to be able to be done
without a 64bit toolchain.

I really doubt that I can convince him to spend additional money.

With the way things are now, I do not seem to be able to win bids on
getafreelancer.com anymore, as people from India do things for next to
nothing.  I did in the past get a few good contracts.

Regards,

Christopher.
