Ping... (((.)))
Ping appreciated and acknowledged... but I think I'll wait and see if the thread manages to bring in a new piece of anti-nag info that hasn't been posted and list-pinged yet.
I've been admonished to not post and/or ping quite so many anti-Windows / anti-Microsoft threads, since the Windows ping list has a lot of folks who use Windows and rather like it, as well as those who don't. So I'm trying to strike a balance, and when I've already pinged the list to a lot of threads on a given topic (like the nagging), I'll back off unless a new thread brings up additional new info about the topic.
So let's see how this one develops... Thanks! :-)
