While we are discussing Windows 7, I acquired a new ‘puter with Windows 7 and find it only marginally better than VISTA was. I purchased the MS Office Home & Student package which includes WORD, PowerPoint, etc. and had it installed by The Geek Squad. For one thing, if I receive an email with a PPS attachment, it will not open the attachment. There are other disappointments which I won’t bore you with. But I wish I could just go back to Windows XP and be happy again.

Thank you for your indulgence.......and help......maybe.

Aah, yes. Good 'ol XP. A fine soldier, if one can overlook an occasional friendly fire incident, his being a bit hard on the liquor, his short-changing a few of the workin' gals, and penchant for allowing spies to hang around his bivouac ...
but all-in-all a fine soldier, executing his assigned duties rapidly, without [much] complaint. Much ordinance delivered accurately, on target.

All hail XP SP3 !
