I fully agree with you. When I ordered my TP760CD from PC Direct, I
specifically asked if they would repartition the system to my specifications
(I was even willing to pay a fee for it!)  but they clearly stated it was
not a service they were willing to prpovide.

Could you please specify what fiddling did you have to do, and which
"annoying VGA fix" you are referring to? I am planning to rearrange the HD
to install Boot Manager, OS/2, Dos, WfW and WinNT within the next couple of
weeks.

Any other help or tips will be greatly appreciated.
