    I am sure I can hear the laptop work out whether the pistons should start up, or just leave it a little while after all there is no hurry<laugh>

    Is it one with valves in it that glow when turned on? TV used to have them and when one blew you could get a replacement from the local shop.

    My new laptop is faster than the old one, but because of the AZERTY keyboard I am now typing slower than on the old one.:(

    When I did my apprenticeship at a very well know supplier of Telecomm's test equipment, many of the signal generators we made were still stuffed with valves. Great technology but a little dangerous - 2Kv DC can make you jump! Mind you, this was the late 70's as well!

    Get some new key-caps and remap the keyboard to a UK one and you will be back to full speed OFH
