Being a non-games-player I stopped a year ago; there was no need to "keep a partition" to do things. The only software which could conceivably be installed is that which accompanies my new Clie but, on inspection, it's all flapdoodle and most of what it does can be done from the command line. Something rather worrying is The (Sunday) Times being used as a Microsoft mouthpiece. I remember when The Times was almost completely taken over by Microsoft-sponsored coverage of the Windows 95 launch; the row was phenomenal, I suppose because, at that time, The Times was still expected to be (reasonably) objective. (Mind you, the other newspapers were far from blameless: The Guardian published a negative review of Windows 95 by Douglas Adams which was deplorably technically ignorant - as I remember he was a Mac user - and was widely parodied. It didn't try that again). Alastair
