Cool that would be great maybe I will give it a try sooner rather than
later.  I have to laugh; they still keep showing those tv commercials here
where the people are going to the computer store and two computers are
telling how good they are and the customer still chooses XP.  I'd love to
send it along it crtacks me up.

Hi Liz and all, I personally think most of the bugs in Vista have been 
ironed out in Service Pack 1.
