That's just an over-developed sense of confidence. It's one thing for like- minded individuals to meet up to celebrate the launch of a new OS Version (as the O-S community does sometimes), but what would happen if you invited all your friends round to celebrate this launch? I don't have so many friends that I can get rid of them en-mass!!! Quite entertaining. Tim B. ps. on the Advertising note, would MS please stop using children to advertise their products. Personally, I find that REALLY offensive. -- OpenPilot - Open-source Marine Chart Plotter Lead Developer http://openpilot.sourceforge.net -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
