Thanks for the URL - most helpful.
I accept the point about Google v newsgroups and also accept that I
took the easier , lazy way by asking directly in the NG .
I am a frequent user of Google and am aware what a useful source of
almost unlimited knowledge it is.
However , just recently , I have been researching facts for a possible
upgrade to my m/b and have been hooked into Google constantly for the
last few days and , as a result , had got to the point of " knowledge
overload " !!! - hence my shortcut of the direct question to the NG's.
Apologies - I , of course , agree with your comments and , once again
, thanks for pointing me towards an answer to my question.
B.N.
