Hi! Ed,

On Fri, 12 Apr 13, you wrote to me:

 EV> Never have installed U'u, only used a Live CD or ran it in a vBox.

They're both savvy methods of running it, Ed, particularly from a boot USB
sporting an .iso image in lieu of a wasted CD.  Better than a dual boot, though
a little slow since there's no opportunity to use a swap file (partition).

 EV> As I told Jean, I did take a peek at the Raspberry PI web site a day
 EV> or two ago (April2013).

That's more than I did, Ed.  My practice is to search initially on YouTube, to
get the inside info from each horse's mouth.  :)

 EV> I'm wondering if Jean will be giving me a RASPBERRY of the Bronx
 EV> Cheer variety?

Oh, is that where they hail from?  :)

 PQ>>One video I like a lot, and recommend to Ed, is:

It ain't me BTW.  He's spruiking with a pommie accent.  Eeek.  ;-)

There is a sample of me doing my best to get around a Dutch or German harbour
name, in a kind of contest a couple of sysops were having a few months back...

(I got kinda stuck on on the word 'quay' while preparing for the foreign
tongue-twist to follow.)

 EV> I suppose everyone has a ACCENT that other people can detect.

Funny you should mention that.  Once upon a time, I rang a guy's Fido system in
Florida using my you-beaut USR v.everything modem.  However, he answered
'voice'.  (Turned out that he was waiting for the hospital to call WRT his
wife's condition, at the time.)  Anyhow, he got to talkin' in some southern
accent (I was only used to Californian, Montana or New Yorker -speak) and I was
doin' my best Aussie... well, long story short, we agreed to hang up.  We each
couldn't understand the other.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.

... I just saw Elvis.  He sat between me and Bigfoot on the UFO.
