Dear Sven, Yes thanks Sven, I am aware that support for XP ends soon, thanks. Informatively I've come from using an Apple IIe and Apple Soft and DOS 6.22 through IBM and XT's and W95 and .......to XP Pro...through Verbatim 5 1/4 inch and on to to 3 1/4 inch floppies and you name it. 10 meg external HDD's and 6205 chips were wondrous..! I'm such a fan of the reliability and stable horsepower of XP that I've purchased a new sealed copy of XP SP3, as backup. I've just never had a crash Sven, so I guess just as you say, I've been lucky. As we speak I'm generating (simulating) 500 data files each file having 225 obs from which I'll be generating eq A6.2 through to A6.14 Pyndick and Rubinfeld. My machine doesn't even blink at the job.. I wish you well, Sven. Work hard and thankyou very much for your post...
