I'm not sure that I've ever officially joined that set, Arny :-).
However, I'm a regular lurker & very occasional contributor on here (have
been for a long time). My choice to use something other than MS Windows
is irrelevant. Also I noticed previously that most of the posts sent via
Google Groups were just junk. That's why I filtered them. Have they
improved?

It needs an operator to set it up. Judging by some I've heard it's left to
the work experience type who's set on being the tea boy.

Nor will it help with stuff that's already overmodded being fed into it.

Not sure which of the above your comment relates to.

Try to learn the difference between an untrimmed signature and a post. I
do realize this might tax your feeble Scotch intellect.

I'm sure I've pointed this out to you before, but "Scotch" is an alcoholic
drink,
not a nationality.
But this group is indeed dead, just checked after a couple of weeks and even
the groups established clique have run out of things to say or are not
talking
to one another?
But Jim has at last cottoned onto the importance of impedance matching......
(That should result in a flurry of angry retorts from the clique?).

This is not the froop for this but installed an LG Blu-Ray burner on a Win7
64bit
machine, (49 quid from yoyo) all criteria is met, used Cyberlink
compatibility advisor
executable, flashed firmware blah blah, but sigh, not going to plan. Bugger!

I was assuming he (?) was meaning intellect that had been enfeebled by the
drinking of 'Scotch'. :-) However FWIW I'd associate that with de-icer
liquids like popular grain mix brand name deleted, etc. I did once clean
the ice off our path with an unwanted bottle of that some innocent had
given to me thinking it was worth drinking.

My preference tended to be for single malts. I did also enjoy some of the
various wood cask finished versions. The Balvenie Port Wood 21 year was a
favourite.

But Jim has at last cottoned onto the importance of impedance

No idea who would be angry as I have no idea what you mean. Maybe the angry
retorts will enlighten me on that.

The "Win7" part made me lose interest in the rest... :-)

Here in London we don't de-ice our drives ourselves, we have east European
immigrants who will de-ice a whole street for a six pack of Stella and 50
grams
of Old Holborn. And down here in the south it only gets icy in the winter.

My preference tended to be for single malts. I did also enjoy some of the

The Belvenie was never a favourite of mine but it could be perked by topping
with cola and two chunks of ice, no doubt you like it that way?

That doesn't surprise me...

.... If only.

It seems a bit of shouting and cursing at it seems to have done the trick,
booted an hour back and it now recognises all blank media.

But Jim, over priced/under spec Apple hardware is for girls or men who
wear pink ties. Linux is for old blokes with too much time to spare, but
Windows is for real men.

Slainte,

Jim
