Hi Randy,

thanks for explaining where you're coming from on this. Just as I imagined, 
you're way ahead of me in regard to knowing how to create a library of all 
your ripped CDs so that you can use your computer as the heart of your music 
system. You don't say whether it's connected to a serious audio system, or 
if you just use the computer like a sort of boom box? This is stuff I'm 
trying to get a handle on, because someday I may want to set up something 
like that.

Anyway, I hope you post whatever you discover about whether or not to 
upgrade, so I'll know more about all this. Everybody's in despair, every 
girl and boy,but when Quinn the Eskimo gets here, everybody's gonna jump for 
joy. I know the Manfred Mann  version is the only one most people have 
heard, but don't I remember that it's a Dylan tune, actually? Maybe it's on 
one of the basement tape collections? Always liked that song. What's this 
Jeb and PB thing?

Also, is it at all possible for you to fix your email program so that your 
own new message can appear first, above the one to which you're responding? 
It's a bit of a hassle having to arrow down through my own quoted message 
and headers and stuff to finally find what it is you've written.

Thanks.

But that's me, and I'm really not skilled with this
stuff. What about you?
How come you wouldn't just switch to WMP 11 in order
to learn  more skills
using this guide? Because you've heard it's awful, or
because you have some
kinds of settings that involved a lot of time and
labor to make, and they
won't transfer to the upgrade? Or..?


Good questions and I'm certainly very interested on
the topic.  I upgraded several months  previously and
found the new version scrambled  my Library and was
generally harder for me to use.  I didn't invest a lot
of time because the upgrade was actually an
inadvertent  upgrade which after a limitted amount of
exploration was one I rolled back.  There are several
things I'd like to add to my abilities with WMP 10 but
having not seen anything sufficiently enticing about
WMP 11 I stayed with the comfort and function I had
with WMP 10.

Now I've toured the guide in a very limitted fashion
and while I find it has promise I want to study it a
bit further before I decide whether or not I might
upgrade again.  Presently what I most want is enhanced
library manipulation skills for my reasonably large
collection of CDs now entirely stored on the computer.
