There is something more fundamental here that people need to come to grips with. Just because Linux distributors put version numbers on their boxes doesn't mean that each shrinkwrap package that says 7.1 on it is going to be the same as any other any more than when you buy W'98. I've bought two versions of LM7.1 Complete and they were different. I knew they were different before I bought them as the second one makes a big deal about the fact that Star Office 5.2 is included. Star Office 5.2 wasn't even available when I bought the first one. I think a better "logical assumption" is that these packages vary. Certainly all evidence from watching people talking in [newbie] about this issue suggests that there is variation. I, and the other guy who opened this thread, aren't talking from "assumption" however. We've got the disks in our hot little mitts and there's no way these disks are the same as the isos as one of the iso disks isn't even in the package. Cheers --- Larry
