Hello Dane This again is just personal perspective. But we don't want to get too bobbed down with all this Windows stuff. For us, Windows is a very very limited time OS. In other words, we'll use it when we have too, but nothing more. It won't be used for mail, web browsing, any of that kind of stuff because to be honest we just don't need it.
All we want it for is Braille, DAYSY, and maybe the odd bit of audio CD ripping.

I use something here called Tune-Up Utilities to maintain my windows Machines, when I bought Vipre Anti Virus Premium I just happened to be lucky enough to buy the Tune-Up Utilities software which came bundled as an offer for 3 PC's at the time. this software is very accessible and again very customisable, if I had to compare Tune-Up Utilities to anything then the best comparison I could make is to the older versions of Norton Utilities back in the late 80s early 90s when the package was a suite of utilities, all of which could do a different job or which could be entigrated to work as part of a "control Centre" thus automating many tasks. I appreciate that there is nothing like a good edit of the Registry every now and then but the fact is that such a task is dangerous and can easily bring a system down so I certainly wouldn't recommend anyone try it unless you're absolutely sure of what you're doing or unless you're running Rollback, System restore etc. ======================================= The Techno-Chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/techno-chat You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Techno-Chat group at either of the following websites: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/techno-chat/index.html Or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> you may also subscribe to this list via RSS.
