It looks like I'm not going to have a chance to check this patch on windows
with py24 after all. I have to send my new laptop back to Sony, and won't
have it back for another week or two.
Off topic: Like any self-respecting linux user, one of the first things I
did with my new laptop was wipe the hard disk and perform a system recovery
into a smaller partition, which failed and probably exposed a problem with
the DVD drive. Sony tech support, incredulously: "You performed a system
recovery with a brand new computer?" Me: "That is correct." Sony tech: "Let
me refer this to the next level of support." On the upside, the new Sony SR
series is really nice, the keyboard is phenomenal, and although I couldn't
install kubuntu from CD, I was able to install it from a bootable USB stick,
which is more than can be said for Vista. I think this might be the first
report of Linux running on this model.
