THANK YOU ALL this post is my very first one on my brand new laptop using the free wireless link - not secure but I have no real secrets to steal on this.
I have to practice with this stupid VISTA so will be signing off (plus need to learn how to use this webcam that came with it) I could not resist this best buy deal of an ACER aspire 5515 with 3 GB memory and 160 gb hd and cd/dvd plus wireless with high def 15.6 inch screen and free case and free wireless microsoft mouse for $399 (especially since my sister insisted on buying it so I email her from the hospital and use the webcam so she can see me as she needs to get back to work in san francisco so she leaves tomorrow) I am so blessed with family love. Now to sit with her and the wife while they critique the fashions on the academy awards.
again, thank you all for the responses.
