Thanks mr.mark for the article. I will predict the numbers will be worse when survey comes out next year. From comments on Abit's News Group board when we left the BX MOBO for the intel i810, i820, i830, i840, now going back to a i815, also the 133 and 133a plus a few more chipsets on new MOBOs there is nothing but confusion. Couple this with th 50 million lines of code in w2k, all the problems with NSCP and we have chaos. Linux is not the answer. Been fiddling with it a month and with all the security, passwords, user names it takes a rocket scientist to even load it. About 30 minutes to get a screen. I cannot see the 40 million AOL users ever switching to it. Jane/John Doe are stuck with w2k and NSCP for a browser if you're living in the fast lane. Have my old 486 tuned up for now. Will uninstall NSCP 4.72, create a new profile, reinstall and see. May do this a few times on both rigs and get it to a fine art, then when I get a Fatal Error just uninstall/reinstall and get going. The gurus on News Groups are swamped trying to help and things are happening they aren't able to repair. Hopefully the new version 6.0 will help some. There's nothing wrong with NSCP's e-mail when it works. How about the program ( GO BACK ), when something goes haywire just GO BACk 1,2 or 3 days and pick it up and hopefully you know what you did wrong. Anyone here using it?? Guess I had better cut out the ranting/raving and start Unstalling.<g> Have a goodun', regards, /jw
