Yes. But bear in mind that this was a brand new machine that had just
been swiched on. I refused every screen wanting to install stuff.
NAV, McFee, AOL etc.
For the time being the one I havn't been able to kill off, is the DELL
registration pop up screen. It doesn't seem to exist anywhere that I
can find. However "Crl, Alt del" allows me to stop it. Till it pops
up again. Also it keeps trying to send stuff through the LAN card. If
I disable that it tries the wireless link. Minor issue, I don't have
wireless !! But next door does !! Windows complains that it can't
connect to the wireless network and asks for the settings.
Fat Chance !!
