Good morning to you Charles, how are you today ? 

 CA> I was trying to explain that you would have a difficult time
 CA> trying to determine what "the best" system was.

        In the eyes and minds of the populace at large, best is equated
        to most expensive.

 CA> That would describe W2K, 'mostly' working most of the time. 
 
        Have given a thought of redoing the OS. That has to be the
        reason. Why would it work for me painlessly and not for you ? If
        I recall well, this is a given system to you. The previous user
        must have corrupted things somehow. If you use Aida, you can
        find the proper numbers to revalidate your system.

 CA> I can fit my OLR and editor onto one floppy disk. I don't need
 CA> a flash card for that. 
 
        What is a floppy disk ?  Yeak ! yeak !
        I do not either but it sure is a fine way to move the folders
        from system to system. USB is here to stay. And then a FC is
        just as fast as your CPU will allow, no chunking-chunk of the
        floppy device, it is there in a flash. Maybe that is why they
        call it so ? For this, I use the 8 Mbs card that came with my
        digital Canon S110, I have a 64 Mbs in there and can take over
        200 pixes at my selected size and resolution.
