Odd, the only system that I have with more than 2GB is a laptop with 3GB (I have a Win7 partition). The others have a max of 1GB and are dual boot WinXP and linux systems. OOo works just fine in all of them (Windows or linux). I don't know that I'd try the same In Win7, but don't know enough about Win7 to test. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
