;-)  Yeah, this is a low-end T42p with 2 GB of memory and a Pentium M in 
it.  The odd thing is that it was fine on 10.1, but part of the reason I 
was replacing the OS was file corruption - so it's possible that could be 
the issue.

I'll have a look through the directory (I clear the cache) and see if 
anything sticks out.  I'd like to diagnose rather than burn it and try 
again - I'm like that. :-)
