As a matter of interest - this is a Windows mailing list, isn't it? -
how do you tell what Windows SP is installed?
Whenever I go over to Windows -
so my grand-daughter can play Sims-2 -
Mr Gates seems to tell me he is checking my system 
to see that it is up-tp-date, which I think is very nice of him.
Doesn't he charge for his services?

This box goes to the internet through a Linux box.
Could a clever scoundrel get through to it?
