I'm between baseball games (dtr's baseball games) got a tournament over the weekend and she's doing well ... but nothing stops me from checking into korg though. korg is like the 7-eleven of kixtart bulletin boards [Wink] there is always someone minding the store.

Shopping with the wife - [Eek!] - one of the things I hate the most. Would rather walk over flaming coals in bare feet than walk through wal-mart with the wife. Don't do it Les.

Why not give her Windows XP? And enable 'remote desktop' or any other remote control program. Thne you can fix her computer from your own home (especially if she has a constant Internet connection, e.g. DSL/Cable)

Good idea. I loaded-up XP for my inlaws and the support calls have dropped to a trickle.

Give the boss support? Gee... maybe that's where I went wrong. My philosophy, you broke it - YOU fix it!

Now that would guaranty me a lifetime membership in the doghouse. I may not be the brightest bulb on the tree but I'm not that dim.

My boss is a 'working supervisor' meaning that he is expected to support all the systems I do. He is my relief when I am out of town. I need to foster independence but will bail him out if he gets in over his head.

I'd put XP on it in a heartbeat, but it is a 400mhz/128mb machine

I figure XP would blow it up.

But, If I have to rebuild it, I may as well try and see.
