Neither. It's your post w/attachment that got posted. I'll check out the info later. In the next 10 minutes there will be arriving a lot of guests to my 7-year-old's birthday party. Gots to go! :-6

Good choice. A lot of good info there.

Another article that is in that same area that can be quite useful is the "Your new PC needs these 22 freebies"

Very useful stuff.
