Eric,
Thanks for the response. I guess the safest option is to see if the
major PC suppliers like Dell will still supply a PC fitted with XP instead.
How long market forces will permit a request of this sort remains to be
seen, so I guess I need to make my mind up pretty soon as to which way to
jump - SDR or Yaesu/Icom.
I seem to have unintentionally started a thread which now seems to have a
mind of its own and is starting to dig deep into the American psyche -
sorry!!
Bob
