Hi from new user!

Hi Marc,

Thanks for the words!

I had a brief flirtation with RH9, but gave up after a while, as I was only 
playing with it on a 2.2GB Hard Drive, which really wasnt suitable at all 
for the distro! Couldnt find anything there about USB modems, so hence I 
didnt dig much deeper!

I'll have to wait until the ISO's get here and have a bit of a play!

Many thanks,

James
