robinturnerMy new computer has arrived, and very pretty it is too, all black and grey, with a sexy LCD monitor and wireless mouse and keyboard*. I've been spending the last god knows how many hours installing software. Mandrake 9.2 installed without problems, except that I have no sound. That's not a major headache, since I'm only using the onboard sound until my soundcard arrives after the holiday (that's Eid, not Thanksgiving).
On the other hand, all attempts to install Windows 98 have gone nowhere. I have a sneaking suspicion my motherboard won't work with them - time to go a-googling.
* From Microsoft, believe it or not! I may hate their operating systems, but they make nice hardware.
