I have been using Win7 for 3 months now I cannot see why you would not want to use it? Especially if it came installed on the laptop. You should test drive it first before you dismiss it. I mentally see this taking place. Salesman gives you the keys to your new 2009 vehicle. You drive down to the body shop and have all the panels removed as well as the seats and dashboard. You then ask them to make it just like your 2003 version. why? -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer SQL Server DBA Web and Winform Development Independent Contractor Memphis TN 901.246-0159 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
