Re: Random crashes with testing on IBM T22
OK, my machine just crashed again, but this time when it just stood there
running Star Office while I was reading when it locked up. Its starting to get
really annoying. How are your experiences with delivering IBM equipment for
repairs? Do they requiere you to have Windows on the machine? (I do, but in
VMWare).
Oh and Glen, thanks for the note about HW problems I was beginning to fear that
Linux was the problem.
