Thanks for the health warning, Emmanuel.

I use my gmail account for online storage anyway - in a low-tech way - by emailing files to myself!

btw - you will be proud of me. I am going to load ubuntu linux on an old laptop.

Good man. I'm sure you've used unix systems before going into the ministry. It should not be too difficult to handle. And there are loads of people to help out.
Alan said…
No, I never used UNIX. Always commercial computing and on Honeywell (GCOS6) and later IBM (MVS). Still, I am assured that ubuntu linux "just works"!

I am not sure that this old laptop can live again. It has a 3GB hard disk (just over the minimum) and 32MB of ram. Remember when computers had 32MB of ram ? Maybe there is a really small LINUX distro that would fit. UIbuntu and Mandriva say they need 256MB ram minimum.

It's horrible isn't it Alan. I bought a BBC Master for our kids and a 256 memory was the latest and greatest thing. I now have a steam generated Dell, (another reference to advancing years, it's a hand-me-down from my son - I've reached that stage, help, (I also dribble a little at times too)). It's got 448 on a Pentium 3 and it's about to go to that great repair shop in the sky because my Libronix is going to work it far too hard if I download the two Christmas special offer c.d.s. I'm now looking at a minimum of 2 gig of ram, probably more if I don't want to have to ditch this one in about three months time! It's not fair! But then, who-ever said that life was fair.

Certainly not me. I am "upgrading" Gwilym's computer from ME to XP even as we speak. This morning all went alarmingly well. This afternoon it boots up - and shuts down. Boots up - and shuts down? Boots up - and shuts down.

Fancy Linux instead, Gwilym?

Oh - but it wouldn't play his encyclopedia disks.


..or his games.

These Americans have got to you Alan, do you mean 'encyclopaedia discs?

Another in the list of "Whoever said"...s. Whoever said that English was a logical language?

But I like it this way.
Alan said…
Oops!

It is possible the French what has got to me, with its encyclopédie..

I am fighting a losing battle here.

By the way, with the (apparently troublesome) advent of Vista, I have been told that certain versions of XP are becoming hard to get hold of. I can't remember which because I wasn't listening properly.
Alan said…
Yes. I popped into a computer-monger today and overheard a saleman recommending a customer not to buy a Vista-equipped PC just now. Good man, I thought. After all, there's no prizes for being first.

Mind you, they had a nice pile of paper shredders all with the Vista-ready logo on. In Britain I think I may have asked the salesman whether he was sure that the shredder would shred documents printed under Vista - but in France I thought I had better not risk it. Not with my accent/vocabulary/pronunciation.

Was it a 64 bit shredder?
