    Thanks for the tip. I've downloaded it and installed it on my Powerbook
    G4.

    How I got a Powerbook G4 is kind of a funny story. When I was home in
    California over the summer, my dad says, 'hey, can you help me with my
    computer?'

    I say that of course I can.

    He says, "good, because if you can't I'm just going to have to give it to
    you."

    To put it lightly, I had a dilemma.

    An angel sat on one shoulder saying "you _have_ to help your dad. He's
    your dad after all." But on the other shoulder was a devil saying, "it's a
    15" aluminum G4 PowerBook with 1 GB RAM. Don't say nothin'."

    I actually tried to get a lot of the stuff he wanted to run under Virtual
    PC, but at the end of the day, it made more sense for him to give it to
    me. So my conscience was clear.

    Linus Torvalds is right. Apple has some really nice hardware. Smile))))

    System. I tryed and failed.

    Stefan, I know what you mean. It's been a real pain trying to get Ubuntu
    to install on this machine, and even booting a LiveCD has proven
    impossible.

    On the DeKstasy front, it's an interesting app. I've played a bit with it
    tonight, and have found a few things about the interface difficult; simple
    things like zooming and scrolling aren't entirely intuitive from the
    beginning.

    Then again, I may be biased, as I've been using MixMeister Pro on Windows
    for years. It has an outstanding interface, IMHO.
