[Sussex] Windows bye-bye

[sussex at mailman.lug.org.uk]

Evening all,

I finally did the deed & banished Windows from my computer.

I'm now running Debian as my sole OS.... but therein lies a tale:

I received the CDs for Debian 3 a few weeks ago, but when I came to use 
them, the first CD wouldn't work. CheepLinux sent a replacement & that 
wouldn't work either, so I unearthed my CDs for 2.2r4 & had no problems. 
This is what I am running now, until the CDs for Woody are sorted out.

However, after all my concerns about installing Debian, I must have learned 
something from last time because it wasn't too bad & it certainly looks 
good on my main machine, using icewm.

In order to simplify printing (& better reflect my needs) I managed to find 
a S/H HP Laserjet 4000N for £50 & it works fine for now. I'll doubtless 
have a few questions later about that.

I hope this e-mail looks OK - I'm trying the mail client in Opera 7.11, 
which I installed about a minute before writing this.

Oh yes: I want to the latest version of Mozilla - preferably as a .deb 
although I can't find one on the Mozilla site. If a .deb doesn't exist, 
what does one do with a ".sea.gz" (I think), which is how Mozilla seems to 
be offered on the site?

Enough from me,

Gavin.
