Of the current threads, I have no real knoweldge of RSX, I've never used CDOS (and I know little of disk imaging programs), and so on. Now, get a good hardware/repair thread going, nand it'll be difficult to stop me ;-) -tony -----------------Reply: True enough; most threads don't interest me either, and your comprehensive contributions on the hardware side (and occasionally even software) are greatly appreciated; thank you for giving us as much time on those as you do. However, by now we're all pretty well acquainted with your philosophy of hardware ownership, maintenance and repair, not only of computers but automobiles, cameras, watches & clocks, machine tools etc. as well. Life is short and there are so many things that need your restoring & repair skills; why waste any of it on preaching to the choir or the unenlightened foolish ones, as the case may be... mike
