Ho Boy, did you guys really think that it is acceptable netiquette to
completely hijack this thread with completely unrelated discussion about
double emails and such???  What an irony. Shame, Shame, Shame.

And, with concurrent threads discussing Newbies' Guides, I think some
people here need to go back and read how to post to a mailing list
before they set even more bad examples to Newbies.  

Back on the thread:  
Thanks to those who replied on-topic.  It was reassuring that some know
of bleeding-edge systems that work with Linux without having to stand on
your head to do it.  I guess I'll try my son with FC3 in the first
instance because it seems most likely to support the newest hardware.

Regards, Gavin.
