Yes, it is likely the last.  I intend to retire when I hit 26 years
which will be April 2009.  Of course, if I were to get selected for
Sergeant Major... .

I am quite pleased with my little Compaq Presario 2140US.  I would like
a newer one, but this one has done quite well with Linux.  I even got
wireless working (more or less) reliably.  The only thing I never did
get quite working was the modem.

A floppy drive shouldn't be needed.  I am downloading the Zod (Fedora
Core 6) Live CD and the openSUSE 10.2 DVD images as I type.  Once I get
them burned to CD/DVD and get a suitable mailing envelope, I will get
them out to you.

Merry Christmas to you and your family,


TTYL,

Stephen
