The screen shot brings back memorys, as its the same desktop as we use at uni.

Might have to try Solaris on the bp6 some time, just for fun.

LOL!

ambient. But, there is a problem somewhere in the OS configuration. Running the hostname shows the workstation's name as "unknown". I'm getting a CDROM and will reload the OS to correct the problem. Maybe I will name it, "unknown". :smokin:

Great name idea, InactiveX!

32MB of ram, what does that thing take? I might have some laying around. Even if you doubled it to 64MB, I'm sure it would speed things up quite a bit.
