re: troubling question Monday, July 28, 2003 at 4:52 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by DrakeTheDead (60 messages posted) Thanks Ricer and Kermit, I just emailed the network tech lab assistant...I'm going to get a cheap box to run Linux...the Lab Assistant let me know that we(students) can get educationally licensed Red Hat for student use from her office and she may be able to get Solaris 7.0 from Sun also for student use. I don't want to mess up my Windows Box as I will have to start using it to multi-boot trial/beta educational licensed versions of Windows server software that we are supposed to learn about (Win2k and Win2003).
