Legume was not trying to confuse you, nnuu...he was pointing out that you will not probably get a clear consensus from the population here. Many people are having no trouble whatsoever (other than retraining) and would buy P5 again even if it cost twice as much. Others are encountering difficulties and their response ranges from "Oh darn.." to "This sucks!"....if you are unsure, ignore the comments for a week or so, then read through for the general consensus. I am sure that many of those whose negative comments are the result of impatience, simple mistakes, or mismatched operating systems will have figured it out by then.....Maybe I will be one of them....if I get enough dough together to get a new computer....I'm sitting here at the starting gate with my unopend P5 CDs and a woefully underpowered machine still running Win95...... Scarab <-well......I LIKE Win95!
