Thanks. This makes sense. The previous explanation was a LITTLE
too detailed to even attempt to read - thanks anyway, Dan.

Exactly, thank you Tim.

Thanks for being polite. I am learning disabed and diagnosed at age 6 so it
is sometimes difficult me to express myself although I did graduate from the
University of Arizona in December 1997. I currently work as an educational
assistant at Albuquerque Public Schools. I am awaiting my transfer on paid
leave from Painted Sky Elementary after falsely being accused of computer
sabotage by the then assistant principal and now the acting principal. On
August 22, 2007 this happened and I went to the hospital after a panic
attack. It is too painful to go into details but if you must know more then
email me at my email address listed in other posts and I did grow up in New
York City in Manhatten for 18 years.

Currently living in New Mexico, before in Tucson, Arizona and first in New

The computer I am using right now is an HP Brio that I rescued from the dump
2 or 3 years ago. It dates back to 1998 or 1999(I think). I added memory
from another computer that died from a lightning strike (2 in 2 years but
both times it spared the HD). I also replaced the HD with a slightly larger
one, swapped out the cd drive for a burner and added a pair of speakers.

I think I vaguely remember those, they were nice.
