THANKS FOR THE LINK. I do agree with some of his commenters tho'...his video is a bit long! I like your use of screencasts, I am going to check out your posts on that. Have any problems with me linking (or dropping a link in my blogspot) to some of your Vista and Google help screencasts? I am benefitting from the traffic keeps going up, (the numbers, can't seem to make a dime in two months on adsense) So i thought you might not object to another couple of links to your sight! Oh yeah, got to spend some time between Worcestershire and Newcastle in 2005...got friends in both areas. The UK was great! (I had a proper pudding while i was there) They even tried to feed me some Haggis up in Kirkcudbright Scotland. And of course the culinarian/epicurean in me had to try it....

What's the Roxio problem your having by the way? Colin Hi Tyrone

I just pre-installed a Dell Supplied Business machine and thankfully the Google Toolbar EULA issue is gone along with the Toolbar I might add.

What’s the Roxio problem your having by the way?

Thats why I look for peoples site like yours! To make it easier for me! See, being the Nu-B that I am I was to afraid to do that in case it messed something else up! I got you listed on my springwidget feed, I also am collecting some traffic just from that new blog (just dealing with that one problem issue) also connecting it to my other sites...using google analytics to check it. So if you do a search you can actually find a DELL resolve for that Roxio problem I briefly mentioned...because if you get a DELL with Vista (my VISTA is home premium) you will also run into that same problem. thanks for commenting back! tyronebcookin Hey!

Man that sounds like hard work. I will be getting my first Dell Vista Pre-installed PC's in this week, so your post is very handy. It's much simpler to nuke on Windows XP, one tick and uninstall the Dell support Center. Colin Thanks Tyrone.
