mkim, that's why I haven't bought a laptop yet. I know I'll want a PC and that means getting Vista. I'm really not looking forward to it. -- The HarmyBoard HarmDrive

In reply to: mkim who knows shes whining 's message, "I wouldnt have been able to use my laptop at all if I hadnt gotten a wireless mouse. I still prefer my old unit, but the laptop is convenient., The only problem is that I have to deal with Windows Vista, and seeing that I'm not that swift when it comes to any program, its been a real challenge. I am having a heck of a time with Microsoft Works, being compatible with other programs. Its nothing like Word and that is all I know." on 20:15:55 10/09/07 Tue
