Hi Jean,

JP> 	Not really a return as I never left. I have read all the ongoing
JP> messages as a distant witness, I just had nothing to add.

Yes I know because you've told us that, but as long as you sometime show
up here, we know that you are A OK.

JP> 	I have been on W-10 since Oct 15 last year and I find it very nice.
JP> One snag now since the last update, my HP Laserjet 6L is dead.

As you may have read, I'm promised my GS's laptop for XMAS, complete
with Win 10. Probably there's no Centronics port on it. Also, my T61
ThinkPad has only USB ports for that purpose.

I'm lucky in that case because I have a Brother 1250 Laser that has both
an USB and Centronics port. However, I know that if I have to get a new
one, the Centronics port is gone.

JP> 	I have another HP printer, Deskjet 3050A, wireless, I can access it
JP> from any of my three machines here. The 6L was connected yesterday
JP> to a venerable Thinkpad, W-7, and it is good.

That's nice. For me a Laser (without -jet) is enough.

JP> 	Not much VE2 going on, just 2M nowadays. Computors have negated
JP> quite a bit of the OM activity.

Well, I've not let the computing take over. I still do my 10km
scandinavian walking every day, or in the summer 45km bike tours every
second day, with walking the days between, except for the rainy days,
that are resting days.

Now I'm waiting for the snow so I can go out skiing in the woods/fields.

In the late afternoons/evenings, I'm fighting an uneven fight with
computers to get OS/2 and Windows co-exist on the same HD with the
aid of the BootManager of OS/2.

We have a proverb saying: You won't miss the cow before the crib is emty

I am reminded of that every day, whatever I do, since the XYL died.
