hi dave,
    Dam ! was thinking of creating a partition of about 15 gig for xp
and then trying joliacloud (spelling)  on the remainder so i have ref
point for comparison. mint is good, but the iplayer is pretty bad on it.


If video plays okay as it is, you may want to have a look at get_iplayer, it'll download the video (in either Flash or h264 format) and allow you to play it with mplayer. Works great on my laptop (which doesn't handle Flash video very well in the browser when running at 1GHz, but plays stuff in mplayer fine).
