The very first change I made to my XP box was to switch to "Classic Windows"
style, I couldn't stand what I called the Bubblegum interface. I like the
"TeleTubbies" tltle better so I'll use it from now on. And now that you say

Without surprise consider the focusing mechanisms of most FA lenses
(including some * lenses) were designed and manufactured to be loose so they

That when they drop an item they drop it. You are thinking in the old mode, sell
it until there is no market. The new mode is sell it until just before the new
