Hard Times ...

Zax,

<< Perhaps you were a bit hard on NiceGuy? >>

Perhaps I was. Based on a series of posts that he made on the original SI Nokia board he certainly feels that I was. I'll be responding to (at least) one of those posts to him because I evidently did not make myself clear as to the reason for a 5 week suspension of his posting privileges on this board when I imposed it in this post to him here and I intend to attempt to clarify it. May take awhile because I'm having a Microsoft day like I have not had for many a year and I've been on hold for several hours with support as my issue with downloading the 7-->8 upgrade on a 64-bit system with a valid product key is escalated yet once again. I'm starting to get a tad testy and if you think I was a "bit hard on NiceGuy" I was actually a bit harder on the last support tech I talked with. <ggg> If I hear the words 'Please Wait' recycled every 20 seconds or so too much longer I may be even a bit testier before long.

<< I kinda liked having him around. >>

Me too. Perhaps he'll be around again. His choice.

Regards,

I agree. niceguy767 did not do anything to deserve a ban. And he is also a great contributor to the board.
