Is the new computer running Linux? I hadn't seen that mentioned anywhere. Some new computers, from Lenovo for example, are now coming with OO installed on Windows.
No the shop that it was purchased from had gone over to Caldera/SCO and tends to be a windows only outfit. The system is a refurbbed Compaq desktop system with 2k-Pro pre-installed, 128 meg of ram. And my BIL, who also does tech support for my ILs doesn't do Linux, and doesn't understand why I do.
