Mike,

I tried going the Linux/QTR route and got real close but in the end 
had to put it aside when I couldn't get the 1280 profiles to load.  I 
installed Redhat 9 on a dual boot system with XP Home.  That worked 
just fine but Linux is so different from Windows.  I struggled with 
the commands used to do just about everything.  Roy was very helpful 
but I must have loaded something wrong or didn't load something I 
should have.  Like I said the desktop portion of Redhat is great but 
after re-installing it three times to get QTR up I quit.  Maybe I 
should tackle it again.  I'd like to hear about your experience with 
it.  I'd also like to see a Windows version of QTR.

Good luck!

Tom
