[600MRG] Help!

[Bill Cromwell]

Hi Ken,

I don't have Win10 issues here because I have been using Linux since 
right after Linux started AND exclusively (almost) for a long time. This 
is NOT a taunt. With Linux, iOS, Android we have other things to 
distract and trip us. As you have pointed out, there are hints and plain 
language solutions to all of the problems in all of the variations of 
all the systems posted all over the internet. There are also helpful 
people on most mail reflectors too:)

I do have a Windows XP system (licensed) that runs in a virtual machine 
under control of Linux. I have iOS and Android machines here too. There 
is no panacea. Together we stand :)

73,

Bill  KU8H
