pae good luck on the new monitor Thanks Paul....three weeks for them to get a new bezel from Cornerstone, put it on and test the monitor. I believe it is worth the wait. These folks at highpointamerica.com have inspired confidence from me. I may be mistaken of course. But so far very pleasent, like Mushkin they're also in Colorado...must be that mountain air. They have a full array of surplus, refurbished and 'distressed' (my favorite adjective per computer hardware and my own current circumstances) hardware. They even have a couple of Best UPS. But I don't think the factory warrentee comes along so I decided against a purchase. Seem a warrenteed UPS is amust. Checkum out..... a liquidated item might be appropriate in the future for you...

I have almost scrapped my plan to install the application files on a separate drive/partition as I have come to appreciate the potential to get ALL screwed up on drive letters. My preference would be to have one large C drive for OS and applications too. Partitions could be used for storing Drive Image files, data files and graphics. Second and third drives could be used for independent operating systems and additional storage. I get a little worried about having 6 GB + on one drive/partition. Also the removable backup options would require disk spanning..not one of my favorite options. I then start trying to find secondary applications that are good candidates for a second partition. I go back and forth with the concept. The C drive seems to be winning the tug of war. Zeuspaul
