I remember when the chemical plant 'forced' WIN3.1 on me in the engineering department.
I made them give me a 2nd computer for the window "games" so I could still get 'real' work done on my computer.

It took me a while to come around.

Graham,

Didn't I recently read that you were buying a new Honda motorcycle, and previously had been quite excited about getting a new Royal Enfield?

Which one do you suppose has more fast-moving parts (my guess would be the Honda)?

And, which is more likely to get you where you're going with no problems, day after day (again, the Honda)?

It's all in the engineering.

For what it's worth, I usually have about forty processes going.  And I don't do periodic Windows reinstalls or have blue screens.

You'll like XP.

Vista is just around the corner (or so says Microsoft. I thought it was supposed to be released long ago), which I don't really want to discourage anyone from updating if you want to, but according to the vista upgrade advisor many of our computers won't work with it. That I think is overdoing it. I could be wrong, but I have a feeling there's a few GBs of "fluff" in that OS.

Parker, Oh! joy 

Mike, you're right about reliability - it's true I'd trust the Honda on a long, fast trip, but be apprehensive about the 40 year old Enfield technology - it wasn't designed for today's traffic conditions. Here's my new bike type (mine's actually a red one 'cos that's my granddaughter's fav color  ) - only 90 miles on the clock yet ..



all the best,

Graham
