Subject: [YLUG] Linux on a Dell Inspiron 2650

I am looking to pay someone to install Linux on my Inspiron 2650 ifsomeone would like to take that on. Itcurrently has XP Pro on it and I'm open to suggestions as to whether XPshould stay with dual boot or should be wiped and made fully Linux.

As well as installing a linux distro, I want to also installthe following:- 

Firefox , Thunderbird and a calendar add on
Anti Spam and Virus package
Star Office which I just bought with 5 licences
WinVNC for access to the Laptop from elsewhere
UltraVNC to let users give me access to their PCs
I also need to use Internet Explorer because my bankrequires ActiveX and Firefox doesn’t work so I probably also need Wineinstalling
T-Mobile Dongle
 I currently use LogMeIn as well but I'm not sure if this will runon Linux. Once again, may run under Wine

Contact me off list at peter.hawkins at poppleton.org with details ofprice and timescale if you're interested.
