Apparently, "ze4200" is a "Product Name", which doesn't actually

Ubuntu 7.10 and hit the "Install" button. (I'd asked for the max of two CDs
and tried them both.) I can do it again and report more exactly on what

And here's another laptop question:
I have custody of an HP ze4200 laptop that originally was bought/owned by
MIL and had XP on it. She didn't want it after awhile and I immediately

My wife's 3 year old Toshiba Satellite laptop has had intermittent charging
problems. I have replaced its battery, but that didn't help. Right now it
will not charge at all. I'm fairly sure that the problem is in the socket
