[RWP] Odd Glitches?

[Indigo]

I'm in perfect agreement with everything you say about glitches being 
just a fact of life when computing, Jim.
The Apple users I know don't escape them either.
Linux might be immune, but trying to read even ordinary text files on 
their websites tells me that it's a perpetual hobby at this stage.
, Also, if there was anything interesting to run on Linux , I'd bee 
keener to use it.

I notice hesitations here on this AMD Phenom Win7 64 also, and I've 
learned to live with the workarounds required for Win7, either on NVDA 
or with the half-crippled recent GW Micro offerings; but I still enjoy 
music making on XP more, though, even if it is possible on Win7.
Iwant to spend all my time learning to run my new Casio XW-G1 groove 
keyboard and have computing be invisible, if that's possible.
Some of my mental energy will be spent to promote a special little 
corner of hell reserved just for the snot noses who turn these viruses 
loose on the rest of us.
Thanks,
Indigo L
