Subject: RE: Tech: Networking - puzzling oddities
I tend to run the wizards when I have run out of ideas. Experience teaches that setting up a network in 95, 98, and Me (the first one I tried) tends to result in thrown cups after a few hours....

XP did make it easy - but I still worry about what it says back to Mr Gates.

Hell, at this rate I'll have to get some more XP licences! - or maybe turn this old thing into Linux!

I now need to find an antivirus that will run with it without using ALL its processing power...

But here we are - all computers up and on the network - but the reformatting of the ME machine to do. I think I might do this one too - I've got a Norton 2001 somewhere that allows itself to be used free for a year after a format C (if the virus databases can still be got).
