Thanks for the suggestion.  The specific answer to your question is no,
I'm not using Windows at present.  It's several hundred dollars down the
line (my hard disk is almost full, and from what I hear, I'd probably
also better have 4 Meg of RAM rather than 2 Meg).  But someday a few 
months down the line, maybe that will change.

I have been appreciating each of the many suggestions I've gotten.  Thanks,
all!
