They might be ALMOST thinking of old goats like me! I still have one
machine using 95, and I'd love to boost to XP, but unless Godfather
Gates puts out XP on floppies, I'd have to get an external CD drive to
make the switch...

Blessed be, for sure...

The hardware requirements are no problem, reallt. The pooter in
question was a discard from my place of employment, with all the
hardward bells and whistles except CD drives - it has a total of 6 USB
ports, but they had the Win 95 OS to keep it compatible with their
other machines. So I have USB ports with an OS that doesn't support
USB...Too bad, 'cuz it has both Microsoft Office and WordPerfect. I
suppose I could unhook the monster and cart it upstairs to where the
other pooters are, and try for a direct connection...

Blessed be, for sure...
