<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#800080 size=2>Well - how's this for embarassing - I
thought that my modem was PCI (going from memory), but when I finally decided to
take a good look at it, I discover that it's an ISA card. Oops. I
still can't find much about the model (Zoom Faxmodem 2929) and I found an
internal hard modem that looks like it will work.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#800080 size=2>Now I just have to work on getting it
to actually print something!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#800080 size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial color=#800080 size=2>I was looking through the games that
come with the install and found Tux Racer - system slowed way down when I
started it up. I thought at first it was the graphics card which only has 8 MB
of RAM. Nope, popped in one with 32 MB and it didn't help.
Hmmm...wonder why it's so slow - finally decided to look at the system
requirements for running RH9 under the graphical mode and my system just barely
meets requirements. I have planned to install Linux for so long that it
hadn't occurred to me that the system I was going to put it on might not run the
lastest version real well. I know I could get it run under text mode, but
I like the idea of having the graphical mode until I can learn more about the
commands. For the most it's runs on this system (and as long as I don't
start a couple of the games). I am going to swap out the motherboard/CPU
and it should be fine. </FONT></DIV>

desktop, I would like to try to get it installed on my laptop - and woo hoo!! no
more Windows!</FONT></DIV>
