Hi John

Got a problem with my main PC at the moment - it had been doing odd 
things for a couple of days and then the day before yesterday the hard 
drive decided to pretend it wasn't working! Oddly enough just after I 
installed a bunch of microsoft upgrades! Hmmm. Spent most of yesterday 
and the day before recovering data and just starting to rebuild 
everything - so as soon as I've sorted it out I'll get back to you re: 
Penrose
And one or two other posts I haven't replied to as well.
Ho-Hum, back to system rebuilding - speak soon
