Cool, does gateway put it on automatically? I don't know what they say is so bad with the new redhat 7.0, but I know my isp uses redhat, and this guy says he can probably help me get some things going that I've had troubles in in the past. I went without swap on my machine, but don't find it to be a problem with 256 mb of ram, probably more than I need for now (figured ram would solve my windows lockup troubles, but it didn't, especially with trying to record a lot of stuff at once like sound recorder or whatever.)
