DOH! I shoulda known. I've never really been happy with Google's cloud service. Well, except when they gave me 125 GB of free storage. Thanks for the heads-up BR. And congrats on the new hardware. I checked out a video review and it looks sweet.

I have defragged the drive Peter. All I know is that after a fresh install, the more files and folders I put on my computer, the slower it seems to run. Maybe it's just my imagination <shrug>.

Wow eschwartz, still running after 11 years. Impressive. I have a Dell Latitude that's about that old. Thing weighs like 10 lbs. Haven't checked in a while to see if it still works.

TheDuck, do you think using Linux has helped keep yours going? I've heard it's a good operating system for older computers. Less crap. I installed it once. Lasted less than a day. Ran smooth, but it was just so different.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
