I must have horse shoes somewhere I'm sure. I can still recall (COL 1.3) one 
day I had just gotten home from work only to be confronted by a dipleased 
wife asking me to remove "that crap" from her computer. I asked her what it 
was that she didn't like about Linux and she replied no not the linux! I'm 
talking about that Micro-sh*t crap. Since then there is only COL on it. This 
weekend I did the upgrade (COL 2.4 -> COL 3.1.1) It all went smoothly. On 
reboot the mouse was acting a bit strangely. I check the X config file and 
the upgrad had set it as a net-mouse. Changed that tp IMP/S and all is well 
again.  I'm still waiting for the day when I can finally do the same to this 
box and become totally M$-free:)
