I CAME VERY CLOSE TO DESTROYING THE LAPTOP... I SHOULD CAUSE IT S CRAP.   
      
   But I decided to give it the benefit of the doubt. It could be my PC at fault.   
      
   HOWEVER I HAVE NOW SUPER HARD EVIDENCE.   
      
   THAT USING LOCAL AREA NETWORKS + INTERNET TECH + WINDOWS IS BUGGED BY DESIGN   
   !!!!!   
      
   I already knew this, but let this posting be the final nail in the coffin for   
   Microsoft Windows believability.   
      
      
   I AM NOW 100% CONVINCED THAT MICROSOFT AND/OR NETWORK DRIVER MANUFACTURERS   
   have DELIBRATEDLY implemented BUGS TO MAKE IP/LAN FAIL so you must buy   
   expensive ROUTER CRAP !!!   
      
   Gonna post this on some other groups as well.   
      
   Bye,   
     Skybuck.
