Ended up with the usual Dell tech support answer: reinstall windows. How many times have I had to reinstall ANY version of OS X due to a lockup? Once last year. Was glad His Steveness didn't make any product announcements that would have raided the CLA fund. No PAW on that scene. I didn't want my Leica to end up like John Voight's M3 in the film 'The Odessa File'. :) As cool as the iPhone is....I think I'm gonna need the loot for a 90mm lens.
