Good Day Everyone,

It has been a long time since I posted here, mostly due to major life changes, loss of jobs, etc. I wish I could be more active.

In any case. The issue I am having is 1 of...

My worry, all even versions of Windows have been horrible, strike that ah controversial. So Windows 10??? UGH!

Been so busy I did not notice this was here in October, little late but I am here. :)

Great to see everyone here. :)

Wow! Mint is really looking nice now-a-days! -WS
