yes, it's still valid, and not only that, i have everything up and running now! the only part that i don't like about it is that i have to download a lot of the standard tools and install them manually. it's really easy, of course, it's just taking a lot of download time! :) thanks to everyone who helped, my laptop is now useful again! best, peter -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
