See you tomorrow then Dave. New routers are dead simple to set up, took me 10 minutes to get 7 devices up and running on ours. Best of luck Smile

I've been in this thing since PC's first came out on the market and I say if it's not easy to operate and an hassel to own...dump it.  I say there will never be an security answer, until the answer is an key given to you when you buy it...the number of the key and your name kept by the manufacturer...and passwords are stopped for the plugging in the key...like cash register clerks. Then give the person uses the computer an card to swipe also if they use another's computer...or simple yet, and fingerprint swipe on all computers coming out now...then simply type in your name as" guest" user...with permission status. Though my fellaat Office depoe says...keep the little kids off your computer and buy them an tablet and let them use it instead.  He also says that even my lap top now will be "old" enough to be replaced within 7 years af purchase because the technology on them are moving that fast these days.He claims an kid on your computer playing "games" is most the time ....70 per cent of computer problems.  Put the games on an tablet and them also via facebook..where the FBI can do your babysitting if need be. I am now everyday beiging asked if I want to install Microsoft Explorer 11. When I bought it couple years ago it was an microsoft 7...just to give you an idea of where we are headed these days. You don' t need high application features if you just want to talk on the web..an tablet is adequate. So let me ask you this one..how many of you remeber when Nintendo first came out and Pc's for the house... you bought magazines at the store with computer language programs in them and you type them in to play games....until they came out with already programed games on an disc....let's see that was maybe 35 years ago I can remember doing that one. The first computer board I saw was at school, an kid brought in an board his dad was working on...that was around 1961...living things..and at the most atomic fusion, electrical fields and what not...it went with my special math classes, and I was not that good at math...they threw in algeabra an year earlier on me then the rest of the students..except for these two classes of kids.  Just so you get an idea of how far we have wen tin 51 years...when my son was going to school I use to talk with those kids about "quantum physics" ...talking about making walls appear and dissapear at your whim in housing...so all you need is an open concept basic design..and these walls appear to be real also when your done and any size you might like within the core space...with any wallpaper or paint color you might like also...and any sized TV screen was available also. So say you have an guest coming over to stay...all you got to do is pull down the murphy bed from the wall, after eating in the diningroom and place the table and chairs into the floor under the bed...and instant bedroom. You can leave the shelving up on the sides of the bed and of course shoot on tv screen on the wall and fresh flowers on an dresser drawer under the it. Vola!...all done. It's very posh these days to have an chandlier both above your table and above your bed you know. Would you like it dimmed?  Would you like an simulated fireplace on an wall?....I go for now, we mad eit to the concert "Jam" at the school bu tthey all combine into one big programs with several school later in January and they are taping it.

Hi to all POEsters and John in particular, for the email.

Didn't I tell you that we need to get out of Europe? The sooner the better and then we can get back to making Britain....Great!
