Please don't go there! I have just ordered (and paid for) one of those gadgets and foremost in my mind was the hope that I would not have to deal with a BIOS that needed emulation to be executed. That said, the claim is that it will be here in five days, but this is Africa so I'll give it two weeks. After that, anyone who wants to hold my hand is welcome. The timezone here is +0200 and my daytime cycle (adjustable, of course) is 05:30 to 22:30, approximately. ++L
