Bah, Outlook is a PITA. Didn't notice it sent directly to Don instead of to= the list, sorry about that. Reposting this to the list: I have access to a bunch of Stream 11 Pros (the rather nice looking grey mo= del produced for education) that is apparently even stranger than the norma= l Stream 11s. I have not tried putting BSD on it yet (struggling with the P= ITA of getting Windows 8.1 running on a mere 32GB along with some extra sof= tware for our teachers right now) but I can do some tests if needed. I also have a Stream 13 for myself that I tossed Windows 10 on just to see = what it is like. (I accidentally deleted my backup of Windows 8.1 for my St= ream 13 as well.) I would like to look into getting FreeBSD running on my S= tream 13, but just haven't had the time. If I get a chance to look into either of these I'll let you know what I fin= d out, or if there's something specific you want me to look at, I can try a= nd find some spare time to do that. -- John McDonnell Penn Cambria School District mcdonnjd@pcam.org
