I remember Bill Gates quoted, "640K software is all the memory anybody would ever need on a computer." I think there is more memory in the computer at the gas pump.... Dan Goldberg _____

One office had 256 ram on the Server and wondered why it was so slow.

I want a way to show users it may be time to run Defrag on their computer. I hope to put together a list of things they can do to speed up their computer instead of they saying my app is starting to run slower. Thanks Marc
