All the computer pros I know use Vista, 2008, or Windows 7, or my favorite, Windows FE. I can make Vista do anything, but I am holding my breath for Windows 2008 R2. T’is a thing of beauty, even if it won’t run Halo2. I am going to start my Bolivian […]
Thanks Sam, I appreciate your remarks and comments. I think we are all holding our breath and lighting a few candles to boot, in hopes for Widows 7. Bill
Sorry, just got back online here and missed the previous post… I will however restate the issues with the rock lined walls. It just isn’t healthy for the fish. The rocks will end up being covered in algae anyway.

God bless you and your family for your service.
