Subject: OT, my new HD & bios fix

I got some help today from someone with background in upgrading computers, to
install my 15.? Gb hard drive.  It turns out that my old computer has a bios
problem that won't let it use anything bigger than 8.?Gb.

So there was a software solution that would have _not_ been as good as
installing a card that will upgrade the bios (more or less) so, more delays,
that'll happen next week.

I'm glad I didn't attempt to do the install without any help because yelling at
my computer at the top of my lungs might not have fixed it (sometime it works)

This computer that was more than I needed in '95, has become hopelesslly
outdated, a good case for not keeping them for too long.
