Apologies if I'm not being clear.
I have a 2003 Sony Laptop, and a 2003 Evesham PC (Celeron). I moved the laptop to Linux (see my previous post), and then tried the same on the desktop. Since I failed with the old desktop I'll carry on with SBS on my much newer Windows desktop PC, and Linux on my laptop. It's not ideal, but it works. You'll have to forgive me if the information I'm being given leads me to believe I could be trying several different versions before I get something that suits me, and I really don't ant to experiment like that. I'm sure to many people the differences between flavours of linux are simple. I know myself well enough to know that I can be completely thrown by relatively simple things, so thanks but it's not for me. -- PasTim Server on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, 2 CPU, 2GHz, 4GB, FLAC files.
