    Hehe, and here's me with an X800XT-PE powered beast, typing in Word.

    I really must get around to flogging it bit by bit, if I can't find someone with enough moola to take it in one go.

    Glad youve cheered up now after that dreadful day you had. Hope things are looking up for you now.....Enjoy rinsing every ounce of power out of your new machine.

    yup, things looking up - if only my new 'Silent' Tagan would shut the hell up!!
    sounds like a bit of grass or something pinging on each turn of the fan blades grrrr...!

    could hear it over UT... double GRRR...

    still, sodding fast though (insane childish grin!) must go to bed now, have to go coach rowing at 7am!

    have a go at downlaoding something called rhidtril or rhitdbril...well it's called something like that, somebody here must know what it's called. Run the programme and then you will see the beaty of your system.
