learning curve... the only "learning curve" in Windoze XP is 'learning how to stop using your brain'... the media player convers audio files to the format it wants ( wma. and if you try to make an mp3, you get a wma, and a nice notify message listing the great advantages of the wma format ).. the drivers get automatically chosen and installed, even if they are not working, and there's nothing you can do to prevent it.. you get stupid little "hints" that explain things a 5 year old can understand.. ah, yes, they removed the stupid clippy from office, but now in the allmighty XP you get a stupider dog in the search file dialog ;oP XP was one of the main reasons i hardly ever boot a win partition anymore simply beacuse "the learning curve" was a "brainwashing curve". i've seen an ad on TV about hose electronic gadgets they sell to "exercise" and loose weight.. it's something like a big strap with which you wrap your arm or leg, and turn it on.. then your muscles in that area starts twitching grossly with electric impulses while te voice in the add says "your muscles exercise just like the order was coming from your brain!!! " .... i guess that means this 'device' is designed to replace my brain? finally we'll be freed from the inmensely difficult task of THINKING???? well, i won't be waiting in line to buy one of those devices anytime soon, and the same goes for eXPee... ;o) ( how's that for a "machines taking over" movie script. hehehe... ) Damian
