Hey, Leonard,
Welcome to what our buddy woodsmoke calls the friendliest forum on the 'Net. It's nice to know you've been able to install without problems and hook right up wirelessly; if you do run into any problems we're here for ya!

Welcome aboard, Leonard. Glad to hear Xandros is working for you. If you have questions, that's what the Forums are for!

If you use crossover office, you can install the evil internet exploder out of the box.. It is not free, however.

If you are looking to do it on the cheap, you might want to look here.. http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page I have no idea if it works.

Regards.

... had to go in and re-configure - got rid of dualboot on XP ...
=> Toshiba Satellite A105-PSAA5U-S2101
=> Linksys 2.4 GHz USB Network Adapter
=> Xandros Home Edition Premium Desktop 4
... no other 'software' or 'patches' - all 'off-the-shelf' items ...

... testing re configured laptop - Barnes&Nobles wants you to buy subscription to AT&T - defeats the purpose of open source OS and Wi-Fi -
Eat&Coffee at Panera Bread and Wi-Fi is free ... more real world tests later ...

I may need to re to minimal XP because I am finding more and more financial institutions (some credit card companies) lately 'up-dating' security will no longer allow linux/firefox to log in - a few days ago, I had no problem at all - now I do - it ignores log-in and says 'done' same sign-in screen goes no where. I used friends laptop to secure IP as Xandros recognized hardware, but got 'confused' so I got IP from friend and had no problem hand configuring. -love it though-fun

The technician (strongly suspect some out-source phonebank to India possibly) said firefox would not work and I had to use IE a few days ago after my bank up-dated 'security' - really secure can't get into my own bank account Sad ...

I have not had that problem, yet; and I use one of the biggest banks in Canada ... and its US affiliate.
