It's also not very closely related to the 7500. Success with one does not guarantee success with another. Sorry. The only closely related models in the Inspiron line are the 3000/3200 and the 7000/7500. The 3700 isn't even designed or built on the same side of the world as the rest, but is instead related to some of the Latitude CP series (CPt, CPx). Sorry if that's a bit confusing. -- Jerry Dunham FreeBSD http://www.dunham.org jdunham@fc.net jerry@dunham.org (512)335-0674 (H) E Pluribus Unix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
