Good Day to everyone, I did a half ass install as a dual O/S. Then the three stooges (root, user, admin =ME) deleted all hda's and did a proper install. BIG DIFFERENCE! After years of working at a job where I had to be compatible with them, and no longer having the job, I went to a local store - LM8 was purchased. #1 - The local store is a large chain, if I am buying and it helps Linux out I would think this method- large chain store- would be the least effective. Is there a better way or am I thinking wrong? #2 - I haven't even had the little guy for a month and already he has grown to 8.1. If I wish to purchase the CD's, well, will I need to redo every thing again or will it just be certain updates, or just let my-man-drake do it or. . . . . Possible site that tells what is updated? Please. I don't know if it is out of respect or fear I am afraid to play with him. So unlike me. #3 - Is there a recycle / reuse for the older version of the CD's? (contact - www.MiniFrisbee.org??? or do I frame them under glass and hang on the wall?) #4 - I want two desktops, with each containing it's own different programs, yet they may perform the same function. An example would be- Netscape in one and a different browser/e-mail in another. Would this create a conflict???? "Twit" = Netscape - when used in the NON LX O/S. (If Netscape is used on the desktop in an HTML function non e-mail it changes the plain text mode in e-mail v 4.7?) It also persistently asks how would you like this sent even when it is set for plain text.) Sorry if anybody got hit. I believe I did, and I know who. I was unaware of this happening as I just downloaded my textbook, and was reading, following the links etc. Oh well no more, that's fine. I have not found an acceptable replacement. Sorry again, and thanks for the help and guidance.
