....sneak into wherever his computer is and take photos of his screen
showing he is using either Windows 2.1 or Windows 95 on his 8088-based computer with the three foot deep, 15" green phosphor monitor. Threaten to post photos. Should be worth at least a buck from Tim. ![]() -- I'm a *Liberal* because I knew the militant christian fundamentalist racist militaristic xenophobic corporate oligarchy wasn't going to work for me. |

One thing about ancient monitors is that if it gives me any problems, I go to the local pawnshop and get another for about $5.00 and I'm good to go, again. But I did move into the 21st century a bit.

Just about the time they got all he bugs out they released XP and we are about 100 updates into that. Microsoft is 3 versions of Windoze later (Vista, 7 & 8) and it is all bloated bugware that will be replaced about the time they get it fixed. I take that back, Greg. It is windows XP office edition and not 2000 I have another ancient box that has '96 on it though. I used it on dial-up. might break it back out and take it to the shop for recordkeeping etc. |

I think I have one remaining program I rarely use that requires Windoze, though it is possible by now that there is a Mac version. It's just an "updater" utility for my Garmin GPS. I've got an older version of MS Office I'll stick with...there's just nothing in the new versions I need, and I certainly don't need an even more complex word processor with features I'll never use. -- I'm a *Liberal* because I knew the militant christian fundamentalist racist militaristic xenophobic corporate oligarchy wasn't going to work for me. |

I miss my old 19" Viewsonic monitor. It was a nice office space heater. === I just gave one away recently in perfect condition. Good monitor but it was taking up way too much space in my office - put it out on the curb and it was gone in hours. |
