problem? OLXWin (my QWK reader) is a Win 3.1 application, 16 bit, and

will

not run under Win 7 64 bit. Now, I may decide to run XP Mode to use it,

bit.
Did you ever actually try that?

No, I didn't, and yes, using XP Mode under Win 7 would have allowed me
to continue using OLXWin. However, to use XP Mode, your CPU must support hardware virtualization, and my Pentium 630 CPU did not. When I
upgraded my motherboard, I also upgraded the CPU to an E6300 duo core, and it does support hardware virtualization...

I would then have tried XP Mode, in order to run all my 16 bit
applications, except for one detail... OLXWin was the only one I had. A bit of

overkill to install the virtual PC you need to use XP Mode, then to
install what amounts to an actual second OS (XP) just to run a single 16 bit application, wouldn't you say? Install and set up a few gigs of XP to
run a single application that takes up less than 1.5 megs on the drive? Something is wrong with this picture <GG>

Us civil servants aren't just civil, Gregg. We're *SUPER* civil. We can smile like nobody's business.

The rest of the world, however, knows that a smile (especially the
smile of a "civil servant") has nothing whatsoever to do with being civil. AAMOF, that kind of smile is the exact opposite of civil <GG>

you have to know a little bit about everything. It's highly specialized and focused - which sort of takes the fun out of it for many.

Sorry to hear that. It seems that too many things these days are taking
the fun out... and when it comes to working, there is very little of it left...

the expense of upgrading. Even as much as I like Office 2007, and its new layout, the fact is: email is just email and Word is just Word. I
don't *need* 2007, I just happen to like it.

Similar for me... I actually liked Office 97 because it was simple,
relatively small, and did everything I wanted it to do. But Outlook 98 was
a dud, and then Office 97 started misbehaving under Vista. Nothing I
could pin down... just sometimes, something didn't feel right... it would
take too long to load, or not load at all (making me think *I* was at
fault for not hitting the icon right <G>)... things like that. Office 2003 doesn't show any of that...

Long is a bad actor? Wash your mouth out dude! He's good. He did
well in "He's Just Not Into You" and the last Die Hard movie.

Matter of opinion, I guess, and let's face it, next to Bruce Willis in
a Die Hard movie, anyone can look good <G>

Also - Apple commercials rock. I don't care if they're trying to
compare two different categories. It's not Long that makes them great

anyway

- it's the guy who plays PC.

Agreed... the guy who plays the PC, not the guy who plays the MAC (i.e.
Justin Long is not the good part of the ads <G>)

MSFT decided, for some strange reason, to no longer include it, or several other basic "utilities" in Windows 7, after they have been in

every

version of Windows previously...

We need to bring back edlin.

Could we? Huh? Huh?

Can you just see what the kiddies would do when faced with Edlin? They
would go beserk! <GG>

Hi Doug!

Jack of all trades, master of none?!

HEY! Quit stealing *MY* title! <GG>

How about if you hold the Canadian rights and I those for the U.S.?

Sounds good to me, but Doug may argue... after all, as a
government employee, that is part of the job description <GG>

Doug's too busy being a superhero! <gg>

I am? Well let me put my whiskey down then, and get to work.
