1 I have just purchased a notebook which was specified to be microsoft free. Yes, I know you don't want other operating systems complained about so I will say only that the manufacturer would not sell the notebook without Windows XP. I will take that up separately with the ACCC. 2 By way of reluctant compromise I had two partitions set up, one with XP and one with Xandros - the free basic set. 3 I would like to contact someone who, for a fee, will set up my notebook so that it will run Vodafone wireless internet within a Linux system, which may or may not be Xandros, and may or may not be freeware. Also, I want XP totally deleted from the notebook so I am absolutely microsoft free. 4 Leaving aside the [de]merits of microsoft, the notebook is intended in the New Year to be used in a one person business which will be document intensive. Hoping you can refer me to someone who can help, and wishing you all the best for 2005.
