Johnnie, *smile*

I do have the Pro versions already. Now I feel like a dufuss not having 
looked at Jaws help files, the first rule when it comes to questions. I do 
it with other apps, why not Jaws... I don't know. Thanks for the confirm on 
the 8600. I'm not thrilled about the lack of an actual sound card, but it 
will be a secondary mobile computer and not necessarily one I might do 
audio editing and etc. on. Thanks again ah, Johnnie
