Ann I really like the "caveat emptor" expression. I had to use my dict linux dictionary to find the meaning and just goes to show that a lot can be said in two words. Thanks for the advice. Hopefully they do not force me to use the dashboard with all those glittering idiot lights. I have yet to try DSL but I have been holding off till all the pros and cons have been sorted through. I'm wondering if the telephone company will know that I'm talking about when I ask them about this dashboard crap. They might go benarkey if I mention Linux. It's caveat emptor time!
