      Hello Bob,               LL>> Given his sudden disappearance from cyberspace, and no        LL>> obituary having been published, along with his web page        LL>> having been taken offline, leads me to believe that either        LL>> his computer died and he decided not to return to        LL>> cyberlife, or that he gave his computer to the needy and        LL>> decided not to return to cyberlife.               BK> The Web Page host went out of business.              Excuses, excuses. Fact of the matter is computers die.       Usually sooner rather than later. At this point in time,       computers are so cheap that I get a new one every three       or four years, if not sooner. And rarely bother to fix       one if it breaks.               LL>> OTOH, what most probably happened was Bob Klahn upgraded to        LL>> Windows 10. And then he got the `Something Else' screen ...               BK> I have one computer with Win 7. I'm working on getting another        BK> to Win 8. Then I'll get the free upgrade to 10.              Too soon to upgrade to 10. Much too buggy right now.       Better to wait. But do what you want.               BK> I have three desktops, and four laptops functional. All but two        BK> with XP.              I trashed my old desktops and laptops. Can't even give them away       due to costs at WallyWorld. New computers are that cheap.              --Lee              --- MesNews/1.08.05.00-gb        * Origin: news://eljaco.se (2:203/2)    |
