ajs,Please note I said HE is the 'puter geek, so all I know is that I push button, screen comes to life, I am happy. I know he's got a UPS but when I hear random beeps coming from his office, I get frightened and begin turning things off. Then, I crawl back under my rock and listen to my LPs, play with my Commodore 64, and put my favorite tape in my VHS player!Ali
