Ed, on the laptop I have Apache's freeware offering, which seems to work OK, but I have this Office DVD that dearly cost my purse, as we traddies say, and I'm used to it, having used it when I was in business.

I really need to clean house though. I have op-systems going back to W98 Home. And quite a lot of instrument tuning aps. And pieces of computers that are too old to use, like power-units that are not powerful enough, and cards for outdated externals....
