Michael Booth 7,364 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 I agree with poohbear (#2), you can get yourself into real trouble if you start deleting things. You have to know what you are doing and one man who knows what he's doing is mick2me who did a fantastic job in sorting out the Nottstalgia site. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bubblewrap 3,815 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Share Posted October 22, 2012 P.S. my lap top is about 8 years old and was the bees knees when bought by my step son, he has a new one. This machine(I.B.M. note pad) is good enough for me. Mind you it has had one or two replacements. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
