[Bradford] Apologies and some advice please

[Andy Coulson]

Thanks all for the suggestions, but no success so far.  As it's for my
business I think a new machine is probably the quickest route to getting
running again and I can fiddle with the old one at leisure - I want a Samba
server anyway...

If anyone has any further suggestions about where to get an off the shelf
OS-free or linux pre-install desktop I would really appreciate  it

Andy
