The double-space under Win95 : was the biggest factor in me being able to get both on the 800MB. (That : and the fact that I don't do a whole lot under '95). OK. I'll give it a try. I'm using about 400M (says 327M free) of the drive right now for Win95 and other sw for work. That should leave approx 600-700M for FreeBSD, which should be enough, no? : We got Japanese units, since that's all that was available. I'm sure : larger keys would help, although we have another box from there, and it : has about a 25% larger keyboard, and it's still annoying to use. I : would think the keyboard needs to be about 33% bigger than the Libretto : for it to be useful a 'regular' laptop. Like I said, I'm getting used to it. However, the keyboard I'm typing on now lets me do things about twice as fast (just the standard PC keyboard). I've found that I'm rarely limited by the speed I can type for 80% of the programming I do, esp debugging. That other 20%, however, and the Libretto isn't the ideal tool for the job.... It is nice to have something that small, since I can take it anywhere, but it isn't a tech writer's machine. That's for sure. Warner
