Welcome Red
I used XP for work and 7 for fun. And it is fun! I wish they would migrate to Win7 at work, but they way our IT guys are, I will have to wait until Windows 9 for them to migrate to 7...

So, what y'all going to do, if they DON'T call it "8", considering this forum url (theeightforums.com)?
