/I do heartily agree/ with what has been said about these systems, 
however, I am _/stuck/_ with the system which I have, for now, which 
have Windows XP and Xubuntu installed....Hmmmm, mebbe I could run the 
HP  932c Deskjet printer, and HP ScanJet 4300c scanner on the Dell 
Dimension 3000, for Xub, and the 922 for Windows?
