   Hello Anna!

I hadn't thought of that before, will definitely give this (and a similar
Swiss version of it) give a try. Thanks!

... and I just learned something new. Unfortunately no license (any more), but
this would also be a good idea. Get a license from eBay, even if the install
media are defective (and get the license at a better price... ;-) ), and then
download from there.

Regards
Fermin
