I am in the mode where I wish DELL would get shorted into oblivion. I even own the stock. I am typing on a Dell which as of now has drained me of over 11 thousand dollars when you include the almost 2 thousand I just paid for two Flat Screens.

When I called them last I complained about this and complained about that and they said they could not support me because I was using their equipment without their monitors. This started out to be a $3,000 machine. I'm up to 11 thousand and the thing still sux. It cannot do what a Mac could do in 1995.

It's kinda funny, because I was using machines when Hollerith Cards were the input system. I have a rough idea of what I am doing. There isn't anyone around who knows what to do with this. Omega Research, Dell, QCharts, The Computer Learning thread.....all of them are clueless.

Nice resolution on the monitors and they take up very little space. Still, it's a waste.

If anyone ever suggests that you upgrade to Windows 2000 take a pass. No one on SI knows how to use it and evidently no one anywhere else does either.

I may not trade tomorrow, I think I shall be on the line with Dell awhile. They told me these monitors would help and they do not. Then I may call Microsoft and pay them for aide.
