Yes. That DEFINITELY looked interesting, and was why I spent one
of the few remaining 1/2 hrs of my life getting a mouse driver. <g>
But I made clear that my objections were with the interface I thot.
Some of these objections were a matter of taste.

Hmmm. A difficult point. A lot of manhours went into the Win9+ stuff
and they aren't deserving of respect in my eyes. However, I must agree
that when a single individual puts all that background stuff together
and does it in what seems to me to be an original manner - like what
Michael did, really, then it is certainly worth keeping an eye open
for possible future changes to the 'feel'.

I should have remembered to consider that M$ charges for their crap.

And I forgot to add the <G> to my closing line. Truly. <G>
Would you do that for me please ?
