Ray, I was having a hard time finding the thread this reply was supposed
to be in reference to but and I thought it might have something to do with
the fact we have already established that you and I differ on threading.
Mario's post cleared that up for me.

However, why do you think the rest of us haven't read that quote. Isn't it
a long established practise to read documentation previous to installing
an operating system? I know I did.

At the risk of another of your flames, I would suggest that your subject
line could have been worded more clearly. I do agree with you that it is
a good thing to read.

Regards
