I still recommend 98 for home use and 2k for anything else - if you're going to go mickeysoft. The irritating things that I have found are that I have bought hardware (as Anne mentioned) and moved to 2k and found that the hardware was NOT going to supported for anything other than 98!

I understand this too. Did you register your product with them? That's especially bad if they don't help you out after that. I know that most large companies are going to be this way, so I try to prepare in advance for possibility. I burn extra copies of the software and copy the key to other locations. Companies get a little carried away with their concern for piracy, etc. If people want it bad enough, they're going to get it - one way or another. The only people the hurt are the ones that try to follow the rules. -- Michael Holt Snohomish, WA (o_ [EMAIL PROTECTED] (o_ (o_ //\ www.holt-tech.net (/)_ (/)_ V_/_ www.mandrake.com ============================================================<
