True, I don't have flash -- but I can live without it. Flash devotees have got up a petition to send to Macromedia begging for a 64-bit version. Last summer when I was thinking of building another desktop I thought why not go for the AMD64 and then installed etch without realising I was getting a 64-bit OS. If vlc does what I want I no longer have any quarrel with it. Also I have one of those huge fans like a mexican hat so I might one day try a little mild overclocking :-o Tony Sumner -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
