I forgot, i had to upgrade to snow leopard to as even chrome said i cant
update anymore?? its a shame more regular programs, even on an older
system, are not catered for. But then soon XP will become redundant, in
favour of Windows 8, has anyone trial'd scribus/gimp/inkscape upon it?? i
installed it and thought hmmm wheres my Xbox control....

i think im more and more either going to stick with win 7,steam and games
can be a little erratic at the moment, i did read an article on the BBC i
think about Steam and Win8, and use a linux box more and more.. (yes i have
multiple machines).....
