I have been using IBM/PC gear since 1985, and have NEVER had to reinstall any software save for hard-drive crashes -- and I've only had four of those over all those years (only one loss of data, and that was unimportant: I always back up my data! And Wolfenstein 3D: I don't have the disks for that.) Marc msmall@aya.yale.edu Cha robh b?s fir gun ghr?s fir!
