   Nice one Dave, Actually, I went back to the original idea, which
   was to do some serious modelling for a couple of months in India.
    Now, ---- My PC`s got about five fans inside it.  Even the
    graphics card`s got it`s own power supply and fan,   -----   Do we
    seiously think we`re gonna pack all that into something about as
    big as a pack of cigarettes and it`s not gonna get hot?  Nope! ;)
     Laptops always cut out when they get warm, and India`s warm. That was
     the point.  So, the problem is  not hardware, it`s strategy.  I
     could buy a modest PC over there, use it, train some other ppl to
     use it, and leave it there.   ....But this brings up the other
     issue.   I suppose sooner or later, if I want to be a real
     modeller I,m gonna hafta get Linux!  Est ce ne pas?  I suppose
     Blender would run pretty smooth on my fairly good machine.....
