Rich,
That most certainly is at least a major part of the problem. R is now
at version 2.1.1, so the version you are running is dirt-old and not
compatible with anything (don't you love how time flies?). Try
upgrading
to R-2.1.1 and running getBioC().
You may also need the developer tools installed (not sure about that
one, but I believe you need this in order to compile anything that has
C
or Fortran code).
Best,
Jim

Jim,
Is tried downloading the affy bundle and it said that I needed
R greater than 2.0 (I am running 1.9.0) Can that be part of my
problem?
Thanks and best wishes,
Rich
