(^_^) Yes it would, someone suggested a nice simple how-to to fix
the mbr
(^_^)from the rescue console. That would be nice. However I think
your
(^_^)mining along the vein of writing to the MBR is probably
fruitful. So if
(^_^)I could ask a question of the OP, did you have grub write to
the MBR
(^_^)since you restored your XP? The system booting directly into
XP would
(^_^)seem to indicate that you didn't.

(^_^) Carl - What do you think of the idea of having the XP
bootloader
(^_^)handle booting instead of Grub? There are reasonably simple
(^_^)instructions for editing the required files in XP as well as
how to get
(^_^)file(s) he will need to copy over to his XP root partition.

Same amount of area being taken up. Seen way worst ones about. I don't
know, maybe it is JUST me, but I'm usualy reading what someone says
instead of what's sitting on the left margin! :-D
I'm not trying to flame, but what I think what their point is .. some
mail clients, spam filters and MDA's might have issues with the
symbols because they mean something. So it might screw up something,
so it's better to be plain and unobtrusive when setting the reply
separator. :)
Just my 0.02 :)
