Also, the servers and connection in between the host and the receiving PC may also fail - eg. cut optical fiber, relaying servers down, etc. Thus, brief interruptions will occur regardless of the host used, whether it be Basiclink or Yahoo. Repeated/frequent outtages are another matter. The move to another host should be carefully considered. As one example, Yahoo! Groups currently does not allow mass export of the list archives, and although they do have a search engine for prior posts, they do not guarentee the length of the archives nor the archives themselves. While there are ways of archiving the lists elsewhere through email gateways, this is an example where migration would need to be setup with such an additional element in mind. It would be interesting to hear how many of the list members have experienced interruptions in service, as well as what kind of interruptions they were. If Daniel is listening, it would be interesting to know how many members are on this list as well. If a significant number of members are experiencing transmission problems on a recurring or frequent basis, then it would make sense to take additional steps towards the migration of this list. Everyone is free to start up their own "Libretto List" independently of this one and to create their own mailing list(s)/group(s) at any time for any reason, just as many Japanese have done so in Japan with their own Japanese Libretto Mailing Lists.

Re: Original size Libretto with 160 MB RAM? Wishful thinking?
Date: Mon, 14 May 2001 19:27:54 +0900 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Original size Libretto with 160 MB RAM? Wishful thinking? Ken Hansen is right. Transcend confirms there are no plans to make an 128 MB module for Portege. The comment I read only means that such module could work for Portege. Still not clear if such module would also work in Libretto M3. The limit on Libretto M3 RAM expansion remains at 96 MB. /ken Original Message From: "Ken Hansen" I think the key is that the 128 Meg part has never been developed. I have 2 Portages, a 3015ct and a 3025ct, and have looked for a while at upgrade options for these machines, the best I could find was a 64 meg part. Sorry, Ken Original Message A friend of mine is auctioning a new Libretto M3. A new unit, not a new model. http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1236645619 A potential buyer asked him how to upgrade to the maximum RAM and the friend asked me what do I know about it. While searching the web to answer his question I found a reference that gives me some hope that RAM in this model could be expanded beyond the 96 MB limit specified by Toshiba. Is there such hope for other Libretto models? ** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ ---UNSUBSCRIBE--- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST-- Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **

RedHat standard installation cannot be executed on Libretto because they need 2 floppy and have not the floppy driver. Mandrake use only 1 floppy and can be installaed easyly on Libretto.

Win ME on Lib 100
Date: Mon, 14 May 2001 01:00:56 -0700 (PDT) From: John Maton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Win ME on Lib 100 John, I tried to load Windows ME on my 110CT. It was a mess. After loading the machine would only run on safe mode, it would not read floppies and the CD ROM drive had not been detected. If you think you could easily overcome all of those problems have a go and let me know how you get on. I would be very curious to hear of someone else's experiences with it. It took me about a week afterwards of working on the machine on and off to get back to how it was before and reinstall Windows 98.

It runs off a Pentium 166MHz MMX and itonly needs 32 megabytes of RAM to run. It may however run slower than Windows 98SE but then again in my opinion Windows 98SE runs a lot slower than Windows 95.
