I'd better introduce myself,: I'm Mark, and I work on
control systems and <br>
Simulations of gas turbines (FORTRAN C C++ Matlab
perl). I'm running <br>
Mandrake 8.1 at the moment and got a debian dvd from the linux emporium
<br>
recently. I use Solaris 2.5 at work (some VAX VMS too). I
write my scripts <br>
in perl these days so I can migrate them. <br><br>
Do the pc's from Potts have an OS installed? <br><br>
Unfortunately a course I have just signed up for requires that I use
Windows <br>
2000 or XP and M$ DON'T APPEAR TO DO STUDENT LICENCES
ANYMORE. <br>
I might get away with using Mozilla + SVG plug-in plus open babel but
I'll <br>
have to fix up a fall back and the thought of paying M$ =A380 or =A3125
grates. <br>
Otherwise I was considering buying a new base unit from either TAB or
Goliath <br>
in Derby for =A3200 to =A3300. <br><br>
