Thanks.

Windows 8 huh? Well I am sure at one point he will bother you again about it. Windows 8 is ok but it also has the flaw of being windows. Inherently flawed. Now you will have to explain the dual boot to him. That should be interesting. Good luck.

Coastie, maybe he needs the new "security update cd" ?

I believe in going cold turkey. No dual booting.  8)

OK so I have a total newbie trying out Beryl for me on a Dell Latitude C640. I just handed it to her today and went over some of the details with her about it. I even informed her she is my guinea pig. Told her we need opinions and views from a "NEW USER from Windows" perspective. She is willing to try it and check it out.

She commented on the wallpaper I chose for her, said she liked it so far... (Whatever) Now I just hope she will have the time to use it.

I will keep you informed of her progress. TTYL

Nothing has changed, since I can remember ... people go out and buy what's on offer, no research, they just expect the glossy new thing to be wonderful ... but that statement is coming from someone who has a different perspective from consumers!

... I am hoping this newbie (if you pardon the expression) will be curious enough to try it out. ...

Unfortunately, I think he has more money than curiosity. He just bought a new Windows computer. :
