Hiya Quintin,

Thanks for the offer. I'd really like the Pro version, and I don't have DSL
access, I live in Legoland (Currambine). Telstra were supposed to have the
exchange upgraded today, but no luck so far.

I do have a DVD ROM, so if you can bear to be parted from the DVD I'd
appreciate it, unless someone comes up with 8.1 in the meantime.

Drat I used to take every second release when I was still in the armpit of
the 3rd world, but gere, I haven't even seen Linux for sale except at Linux
IT and a small newsagent in Northbridge, where I bought RH 7.3 and 8.0.

Thanks
