I meant, aren't the stalks currently used to feed cows? Or burned for
fuel? Or something else? Or are they just thrown away?
The stalks are either left in the field or baled for animal bedding.
If used for bedding, they get mixed with crap and then spread back out in the
Wonko I appreciate that. Though it seems that the Modems for Linux need to
be Fully External. As I have read up on this of the last week or so it seems
that the internal modems just do not work. Yes you can go to that place

A lot of the corn stalks are used as feed stock. Convert corn stalks to

First, you need a 64 bit CPU.
Second - drivers are now available in 64 bit Vista for a lot of
hardware, but I wouldn't bet on XP.
I've only run across one 32 bit program that wouldn't run in 64 bit
Vista, and it was some shareware program.
However, a 64 bit OS in a PC or laptop won't get you much
Depends on your hardware, and what you're going to do with it. I have
one laptop with 32 bit Vista and 2.5GB of RAM that smokes another one
running 64 bit Vista on 1 GB RAM -- the 64 bit one is newer.

OK - the new PC, should support 64 bit. Go to the features chart on
M$FT.COM and decide which features you want, then download the 64 bit
version of that if you're going to double the RAM, or more.
You're on Technet? Download them all - be like Wonko and load a
different one every week.
