Sure he can, he just has to under-clock his computer down to 2.1ghz as win98
has a cpu freq limit.
Sage advice from Dirty Harry:
A man has got to know his limitations.
I remember a few years back, I had a multi-boot box with Win 98 (or
ME) / 2000/ and Linux
and I upgraded from 768 MB of RAM to 1 GB which rendered Win 9x
inoperative ( unless you know how to jump through some hoops, find a
knowledge base article on it if your must ).
Bahahahahaha!
*ahem* Signed int, I take it?
unsigned double long would work? is that the ansi standard? I learned
'c' from the first edition of k&r and never got into the new stuff (
but have a copy of 2nd ed ).
(If someone has a > 6 GB HD that they've declared obsolete, I can give it
a good home in a system being assembled for a new college student out of
some of my old parts and a couple of new ones that I probably wouldn't
have needed had I seen this thread two weeks ago..)
Joseph,
I have two candidates for you to consider:
an 18 GB Hard drive ( was not working last time I tried it)
and
a 26 GB Hard drive ( worked about 3 months ago )
Are you attending the meeting tomorrow?
Rodney
