I've got a killer mix happening right now. I set up a second reference
monitoring system in the CR last weekend (an old Sony system I bought at
Montgomery Wards back in '95) It's *everyman's halfway decent sounding cheap

Time for a soak in the springs/lithium salt infusion ;o)....tomorrow is
going to be brutal as far as work goes. Running your own business(es) is a
bitch, especially when you've been out of town for a week and are playing
catchup.

>Kim,
Are you saying you can see the different operating partitions with letters
on the active partition you're working with?
If so, you need to do some extra "operations" if you're using the installed
harddisk(s) for different operating systems on different partitions. First
of all you need to have one of the operating partitions active(as you
allready have) and hide all the other operating systems with a kind of
program like "Partition Magic" or "Partition Commander". To then start the
different partitions, you need a boot program like "Boot Magic" or "Boot
Commander". If the things are done correct, you will then only see the
active partition as the C:drive and all the other partitions with operating
systems will be hided without any letter at all like a N:drive.
(If you're using "Ghost" to copy the active partition to other partitions,
if I remember correctly, the new partitions will show up with letters, but
will not be active but can give conflicts.)

For me it seems that Firefox, as standard, allways will use a C:drive as the
choice to download at. But I think you can manually set it to download where
you wish and remember the last choice, as Explorer. Maybe you can set this
up from one of the menues?

Regards

Erling

PS: Been in Denmark and Germany for over a month so I havn't been here at
all for that period.

away when I use one of these.

I'm still deciding which to use, and I've had a couple of little issues with
the boot managers, but there are options there. I've tried two of the three.
The second one (which is currently loaded) is good, and allows single button
booting, and password settings and the like, but on one occassion it didn't
boot and I had to restart, so it's on trial to see if it glitches again.

But I'm on the right track. :o)

Cheers,
Kim.Anybody got a good one up their sleeve?

I'm currently testing a couple. Thought maybe someone had the secret...

> Houston ship channel and in the refinery chain beltween Baton Rouge and New
Orleans.

It's been over 20 years since we built any new
refineries....why?????.....environmental lobbies here have made it cheaper
to do it overseas where the oil we buy is being produced because we can't
drill for that here either.

In the meantime, there has been no real energy policy that encouraged
investment by the private sector.

We're getting ready to pay the going price in a global marketplace. Welcome
to European gas prices. Here they come. Fill your tank tonight. It's going
up tomorrow.

This, of course, is all hindsight. What we're really paying the price for is
a failure of the private sector and the government to be able to coordinate
an energy policy that is truly effective. The government couldn't do it
alone. Bureaucracies are neither effective, efficient or creative. Private
enterprise goes where the money is when the money is a sure bet.

All bets are off now. Time to wake up. I'd rather invest the money I'm
paying in taxes to solar and hydrogen technology research. Think I'll be
able to write it off???? F*** no!
