Greetings All,  I was thinking about Tony Palmer's dilemma regarding
the dying Windows machine.  Tony, my suggestion would be to find a used
Windows laptop (there are lots of them on eBay and Craigslist) and
dedicate it to the system.

The computer doesn't have to be particularly fast, and Spencer's system
seems to like it.  I've had Spencer's system in my Red Welte since 2004;
it has performed flawlessly!  (A shameless plug!)

I, too, have migrated to Apple but have not tried loading the software
on my Apple.  The Apple I use for daily stuff, while my Toshiba laptop
patiently awaits.

Cheers,
John McClelland
