@flim_flam: While Cmdr Mysenses makes some excellent suggestions on OXPs be aware that "Your Ad Here" is an odd OXP and while it kills off some seemingly high end PCs some lower spec ones run it acceptably - so try it but be aware that it may have to go the journey (which is a shame because I like it very much - and I have contributed to this particular OXP :) )

Thanks for pointing that out, I never realised that.
I have an ancient steam-driven PC and it runs YAH OXP just fine... weird.

@Cmdr M - YAH - 'tis a weird one - my XP2500+, 1GB PC2100, 128MB FX5600 - jittered and froze with YAH (100 Ad version) installed but my latest cobbled-together-from-2nd-hand-parts machine XP2800+, 1GB PC2700, 128MB FX5900 (i.e. almost the same machine) runs the 200 Ad version of YAH just fine (it may be coincidence that I'm now Ubuntu and previously was XP user)

But it is such a FUN oxp - such a shame if its not in.
