I have to give a big ME TOO!
It took almost 30 hrs (several disconnects when I left
it unattended over night)
I got it, unzipped it, used WinImage to extract the
image.  Burned a Cd on my new Cd burner with Easy
CD3.5c.  Then I put the original .Zip, winImage &
WinZip on the extra space.
Then I reset all the Win2K properties to large icons &
large fonts, set my res to 1280, and now it ROCKS

This is SOOO freakin cool.  I love it when the
consumer (especially me) becomes empowered.  No more
scrubbin grease off little parts to find elusive parts
numbers.  No more dealing with irritating sales people
as they try to hunt a number for a .35 screw....

Now I have to learn German so I can use the help files
though ;)

THANK YOU!
