On the other side, I configured a Core 2 Duo Dell 9200 2 gig ram for a friend. It booted in less than 3 minutes the first time, obtained its IP from the router with out asking TOO MANY times if it was ok to do so, Connected to MS and installed pending upgrades. While it was doing the upgrades I showed him how to stream classical music from di.fm and we installed his printer, shared it with his XP machine, and had a beer. Alaskan Winter Ale. All updates finished before the printer was finished installing and 10 minutes after the power cord hit the wall he was installing Quake 4. I can't imagine what is taking you guys 20 minutes. Am I trading in my Suse? Not on your life. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
