That reminds me.. The keyboard I'm typing this on, which I've used daily since
it was almost new, has a 'birthday' coming up. The manufacture date is on the
back.. June 6th, 1991. At one point I changed the Large DIN connector on it
over to a PS2, and since then I've used it with various PS2 computers then
later with an adapter to USB.

On another subject..

Maybe this is the place to ask this question. The computer I use most of the
time is running Vista but I'm running into more and more web sites that won't
run on the newest Browser that Vista supports (A Mozilla variation from about
2010). Would it be possible to run a Windows 7 Virtual Machine on Vista to
have occasional access to a newer browser or is a full reinstall of something
newer my only option?
