our call but you made statements regarding Windows which I thought worth
responding too not for your benefit particularly but for the list at large.

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.

ah well you see that's where third party utilities such as CCleaner come into
their own, you may remember I discussed the CCleaner version for the Mac on the
mac-access list, CCleaner for Windows has been around for years.
unlike a lot of these sorts of utilities its completely customisable thus you
can configure and monitor what it does, what it cleans and so on.
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.
