Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? I've just replaced the ruby in my 9pin dot-matrix, are you telling me that it won't work with Vista?



When I come back into the den and work with XP, I feel strangely deprived...a child who's toy box has been purged. So many of the things that are in that toy box, I would discard, but there are a few that I would keep. And that's the main gripe, is it not? If only we could have a powerful OS and add the toys as required. What's more, do the adding from the CD rather than a box that's plonked onto the hard-drive.

I guess this all started with fonts. Who sits down and designs these trillions of different ways of writhing the alphabet? I used to purge fonts with a passion.

Now, I need to get to grips with purging the start list. As I've mentioned, I have goofed with one or two deletions in my time. I see that Vista has a descriptive library of these devises -- I wonder if I'll ever be able to find it again.
