 Thanks.  I'll be very surprised if it isn't the hardware. :-)
 
 Just one thing you should be aware of: bad hardware at install time can
 lead to a corrupt installation.  I recently installed 4.0-RELEASE on a
 box with 1 dud DIMM.  After replacing the DIMM, certain programs still
 dumped core reproducibly.  I had to re-install those binaries.  Of
 course, I figured why waste time saving time and re-installed.  Probably
 not the worst of ideas. :-)
 
 Something to beware of.
 
 Ciao,
 Sheldon.
