Hi Maxime I should clarify what i mean by work.:-)
I use to work for a large survey engineering company, 800-900 employees, but they decided last year, i had to much experience and made to much money for said experience , so a number of us were bought out. What i call a work computer now, and i apologize for not being clear, but i do that a lot, <g>is my PC at home i run my equine photo business from.XP home PC Clone etc. I would and should upgrade, but with me, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.:-) It still gives me nice prints and colour results, its just sloooow. I'll check that card idea out Dave On Mon, Aug 11, 2008 at 9:49 AM, Maxime Thériault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'll go ahead and give you an uncalled for suggestion.
