Still here

In addition to the contretemps in yesterday's email, this computer has been playing silly buggers. Downloaded an update to AVG yesterday, and the system reboot it demanded dumped me into safe mode without audio drivers and with a 640x480 display (or whatever the correct numbers are -- I forget.) After assorted futzing around, I now have sound and display corrected, but Elder Son should be stopping by for in-house tech support later. I still have a few questions for him, like why an AVG scan now can't read the boot sector, while everything still boots up correctly and Scandisk can't find any problems.

Next computer may be a Mac. But I'd earmarked the first advance payment on GHOST POINT for an upgrade to the household IT department (this is a Win98 machine and over 7 years old) and we all know how _that_ theory worked out.

Ulcers, anyone?
