Good grief!

I've got the windows disks so can reinstall, I didn't realize ahead of
time that MT would have a Windows dependency.  ;-) I'll have to set up
dual boot or dual hd's or something.  But this'll have to be a project
for next week -- I'm off tomorrow.

P.S.  I've hooked up a Dell MT lcd panel but it seems this is going to
require a different method for testing since it seems not to be
USB-based.  Do you guys have tips on what needs done in this sort of
case?
