Hey back on topic, I hope so, as its more interesting than my delema, but
nevertheless thanks, its appreciated and to be honest, I think it is only
the zip files that get the extra.
Now, like Brian, what and where is Notype.
If Zipping up files didnt take so long I'd zip em and put them on my XP
backup disk. I use the datasafe via the printer port.
I'll end up off topic here, I dont want to go down the Ionyx route, but I
really would like to upgrade to something thats quicker purely for
zipping and other tasks that take time. My APDL Turbo RiscPC is now 10
years old, and I need a backup. Yes I go virtual..
Back on topic now folks.
Thanks again.
Phil
