Jessika,

I'm sorry to hear you had to get another laptop; I just went through the same thing with my SE.

I'm glad you are keeping the site up for others to use. Is there anything you can do about the damn "Rockwell Drivers" posts, though? They are adding unwelcome noise to the posts here.

Thanks, and good luck,

LL
