I am not computer literate enough to follow the instructions that you
gave me. I don't understand the jargon and the different "bits and
pieces". I'm sorry about this, and I thank you for responding in the
first place. I just wanted to let you know

For me to do anything on a P.C., the instructions have to be the same as
"you take the screw in the left hand and the nut in the right hand,
bring them together and turn in opposite direction".

Thank's again, and keep up the good work. I know enough to prefer this
O.S. and a couple of others, to Mr. Gates offerings.

Regards, Mike Chandler.
