P'raps I'll make a point of only turning up at Christmas! It'll be
interesting to see how long that goes on (I expect the Win 95 groups are
still going though, eh? In which case it'll be inteeresting to see how long
the regulars go on! ROFL!!).

Anyway, how is everyone? I trust the bit about Ron being 'blind' is
exaggeration? Hope so.

How's my mate Casey? Kind of fearful asking that. It has been a long time
now! It is 9 years more-or-less to the day, I believe, since I turned up
here. So Mike must be feeling real old! So am I now that Sonny and Cher just
started going on about 'The Beat', going on. La de da de dee. It's like they
say about our 'bobbies', when you want a pine tree there's never one around!

What about her with the hips? Well, I hope, even if she did spurn my
advances back when we were young!

Later.

Shane. Or someone like him.

Yes, Mike, I stopped bothering to run 64-bit versions some months
ago now. Funnily enough it seemed to me that Server 2008 x64 beta(s)
were less memory intensive than Win 7 x64, which is what finally
drove me back to x86.

That's something I've never felt the need to do so not something
I'll miss. As to running 64 bit, although I have PCs running both
Vista 64 and Win 7 64 I have yet to find a compelling reason to
running 64 bit rather than 32 bit other than perhaps due to the
increased memory demands that result from application and os bloat.

of reminds me of the song (Mr. In-between).
