It has 24 Mb of RAM and a 2 Gb HD. Having tried a few downloadable versions of Linux, I've found that there is a problem working with my SMC 8041TX net card. And I'd like to have some support for the IrDa port on the laptop. Is there support for both of these devices in freeBSD? Thanks, Ron -- R & L Thompson, Gander, Newfoundland, Canada, rlthompson@roadrunner.nf.net , http://home.thezone.net/~rlthomps/ "Who are these that fly as a cloud, and as the doves to their window?"
