I share David Jerico's appreciation for the TrackMan Marble so I'm a little curious 
why you decided to walk away from it? My only concern with the latest iteration 
is that there are a lot on eBay in the US, and the samples at Office Works carry 
the MS logo. (personal prejudice)

A more serious question for anyone, is if it would be a bad move for an amateur, 
about to be linux newbe, to start with SuSe 8.1? I've got access to 7.3 and was 
told that 8.0 had problems. The perceived attraction of SuSe to me is "trouble 
free".

As for the address in Oxley Road, are we talking premium mince here, or just 
ordinary?		 :-)

There are three kinds of people in the world, those that are good at maths 
and those that aren't.
