Thanks, Andy

I haven't upgraded and don't intend to. I reckon my machine(s) are optimised for whatever OEM OS version they came with. I only upgrade OS when I buy new hardware. That's a few years away yet, perhaps.

What is irritating, though, is providing support in our computer club just doubled again. And since I haven't upgraded, I'm pretty much stabbing in the dark when it comes to answers unless I can get my hands on their machine. From there it's not too difficult, but no more phone/email support from me.

Some psychopaths become serial killers, and other psychopaths become prosecutors. - Bob Ruff, Truth and Justice, June 2016

Sooner or later, I hate to break it to you, you're gonna die, so how do you fill in the space between here and there? It's yours. Seize your space.
