George, I experimented with every option I could think of 
including unlock, ungroup, yada, yada yada.

No big deal - yet.

I plan on building a Win 7 x64 system later this year, and I 
can imagine that will remove at least some of my anomalies.

I would appreciate it if you could comment on specific 
memory sizes with Win 7 x64 that seem to make for 
significant differences for a robust Scribus.
