I didn't know what I'd let myself in for when I suggested installing 
Linux on her Mac.  Just playing with PearPC at the moment, um... much 
more complicated than than Linux on PC, and even more complicated than 
when I installed RedHat 6.2 on an old Sun box.  I might see if they'll 
swap their Mac for a PC around a similar spec for a bit, then I can work 
it out at my lesure.  It also turns out they have 2 Macs, I swear they 
are breeding!
