hi team thanks for the advice i havent bin here for sometime and havent bin able to work on the machine yes ive deciced to change the sys the unit is to small for xp or win7 and with only 512 mg of ram not many linux sys will load on to one this small at this stage i dont want to go any bigger as they are learners but once we getem going we can think of some thing else so if any one can recommend a linux sys that fits 512 ram and if so where do i get it from thanks marty

hi team i have this flatbed scanner a usb microtek win 7 could not find drivers i hunted all up and down the net for em i tran fered the scanner to a machine with winxppro and it found the driver at boot up and set every thing up with out my help can some one tell me why the difference between the two sys my opinion wind 7 is a piece of of commercialised bullshit and the atrangest thing it finds most drivers compatable to microsoft and have forgotten users who have other com[ponent hardware any offers

hi here is an indepth look at the quake on news and video i see the xperts have likened it to the haiti shake where thousands were killed we didnt lose a life here and i feel new zealanders are quake savvy and keep strictly to the rule we are taught there were lots of damage while im on the structural damagea houses built from ninetys on were the ones damaged and thing any built back in 80-70"s were not touched dosent that tell people of the building standards from then until now my home was built in the 80"s and other my wet pants no damage however here is an indepth news and video

yo hitest yes lets say i may have peed my pants where i was born earthquakes are common but small this bugger wa 5 times as strong and worse was the after shocks a friend and i toured over the affected area all bridges in the area once an emmergency was raised were closed off to the public strangly enough there were some who tried to flaunt the rules but the army were on hand to stopped any one from getting hurt every year we have earthquake drill were we have do what is safe ffor us like when the quake started i made for the door and stayed on my lawn until i though ti was safe

hi baker yes it was a bit scary the city i lve in is not known for shakes but this one was huge by our standardsmillions of dollars worth of damage thank god no deaths and the injury list is light for the magnatude of the shake i haven bin here for some time but when ime able i come for a chat you take care and good luck marty
