Yes - I looked at those, and they sound good.

I did bite the bullet and buy the DSE with 7 day right of return if not
satisfied.  Blurb says Linux compatible.  Will let you know.

I was talking to someone from Wairarapa LUG who runs Linux with Win4Lin, or
is it the other way.  He says it's great - even if crashes much easier to
reload.  That's a project in the future for me - learn to do it one day!.
