It's worth noting, by the way, the very last entry given by FDISK.  This
indicates that there are 5MeB of space on her second physical drive that
aren't assigned to any partition.  The irony is that with the scheme chosen by 
Linda's guru, this space is completely unusable, since no more partitions can
be created on the disc.  (Although one wonders why the fourth primary
partition "J:" was created short like this.  Perhaps a side effect of creating 
the partition using a hex editor on the partition table and doing the
arithmetic incorrectly ?  (-:)
