Damn Corporate muscle :) I think Intel have a little more
control over Microsoft. Don't forget that a lot of corporate
bodies still don't have NT based systems as a standard. The
UK MoD were still using NT3.51 and Digital UNIX last time I
talked to anyone there!!

I've got one of those and it works fine :) Just don't let it
install XFree86 4. 3.3.6 with the Glide packages is much
better. I've been playing UT, Quake 3, SoF and other `nice
and sticky' games (to relieve stress after using MS software
all damn day). You'll probably have to install the system
with yast1 (if you dare).
