I have spent the most irritating two days in front of this machine–yesterday futzing with Semagic, which somehow swallowed a really fine post that I had written.  Today, trying to figure out why my scanner won’t work.  I am beginning an eBay drive and I have tons of postcards and photos that must be scanned in before I can sell them.  No luck, yet. although I do have a couple of auctions up and going.
