I have to agree here, even though there is duplicate information, its not information overload when looking at a given page. Trying to combine all platforms makes an exceedingly complex page that breaks a simple step by step 1. 2. 3. type procedures. Recently I was looking at overhauling my pages as they are a bit stale, and this was one thing that i was not overly happy about. Robin
