Naw.. I'm getting burned out trying.  I'll use GIMP in XP under
Parallels and just buy more RAM so I can keep XP running in the
Parallels system more often without impacting my other work.  It's
just gone beyond being with the trouble now... :|  It'll be slower but
at least I can use something until someone figures out all this..
