Aside from the fact it runs slower than XP on the same hardware

You're not supposed to put newer software on old equipment. Memory is
cheap, just add some.

So much for Microsoft's marketing strategy of selling upgrade
versions, eh?

Under your theory, what is the point of buying faster hardware to run
slower software so you end up where you started?

I think you hit the nail on the head there. Pay more for worse.

When the opportunity arises I'd like to convert whatever company I end up
as Senior Designer for again (or better) to Linux. Free O/S, free Apps.


You can try this 'conversion' Graham, but I fear that your endeavours will
fail due to many of the staff - particularly the female ones - refusing to
grow a beard, wear open-toed sandals, and ride a bike to work ...

Well..... I never recall DOS crashing ! The sucks and blows reminded me of
something too. I knew a very tall stunning redhead (probably the most attractive
girl I've ever met in fact) I gave a lift home once and she kissed me on the
neck as a thank you, blowing and sucking at the same time (or so it felt). I had
to drive home carefully since my legs nearly turned to jelly !
