Back on-line

Some mysterious force seized my Windows OS - XP SP3 (beta). After it booted the keyboard was useless and the mouse if I touched one of the keys. If I used the Accessibility option "On-screen Keyboard" I could "type" with the mouse a few short emails or perform other operations. So I reloaded Windows XP SP2 again and made sure I had the firewall (Comodo) and anti-virus software (AntiVir). I thought I'd try what I am supposed to use on Verizon, MSN Premium with McAffee software, but I found it used too much of my machine and then whatever it didn't really stop that from happening. MSN was supposed to months ago get "tabbed" with IE 7.0 but disappointingly it has not yet. I like the tabs in IE 7.0, Maxthon2, Opera, Firefox, Flock and last but not least (there are others) Safari from Apple. Wait yes it is "optimized for MSN" with IE 7.0. I also noted that Blogger left the music off but now you can post video which is better. Who cares (Pete does? I saw him in a jumpsuit at Stony Brook U. from the back door) that I'm listening to "Calico" from Buzzy Linhart's new album "Studio" I purchased from iTunes? He was up there with Jimi Hendrix at Woodstock and appeared on another album with him I think. Still inspiring performer, sounds like some of its live. Apple let me download it again! I backed it up too! Wow! Off to Republic Airport tomorrow...
