Thanks Thomas,
I won't waste any more time trying MP on the Milan.
It looks like I won't gain much by using MP with an
non-registered German language version of Thing.
Thing is my my preferred dekstop by a large margin. It
doesn't seem to like big partitions, giving very
strange sizes in the info and copy dialogue boxes and
the old problem of long filenames is still annoying
when extracting zips or downloading rpms.
Any chance of producing a Ming update ?

Peter
