Am I, like, the only person who actually reads the doccumentation that comes with the computer? Most questions like this can be answered by browsing through all that paper that comes in the box.

Also, flame away if you feel like it, but I like XP. Not as much as I like my Red Hat box, but the one with XP on it works pretty damn well too. It's a hell of a lot better than ME at any rate.

EDIT: And the command prompt has an awful lot of versitility, if you just take the time to learn how it works and what it does.
