Hello Bob,

 >> Too soon to upgrade to 10.  Much too buggy right now.
 >> Better to wait.  But do what you want.

 BK>>> I have three desktops, and four laptops functional. All but two
 BK>>> with XP.

 BA> Hmph.  I have at least seven desktops/towers set up and running, I don't
 BA> pollute them with Micro$oft products.

I hear that.  Only reason I use one is because I found a new one
cheap.  ;)

 BA> There are a total of about 100 computers here, including an IBM S/390, an
 BA> IBM AS/400 and two NCR Tower 16/32s - I don't know how many PC compatibles
 BA> there are here and I'm too lazy to go count them.  Plus a room full of
 BA> parts...

We live in a throwaway society with throwaway parts.  Things
have gotten so bad, that the German government has resorted to
using manual typewriters in order to keep secret files from
getting hacked.  Only one problem.  No manual typewriters are
being manufactured anymore.  Except by one tiny company in
China ...

(I am not joking on this.  I am being absolutely serious.)
