....a legit copy of Microsoft Windoze 10 and I suppose I'll try to
install it on an older Dell machine I have sitting around doing nothing.
Should arrive this week.

Might not install over anything less than windows 7. Let us know how you
make out.

Got a new Motorguide xi5 trolling motor with GPS for Christmas. Opened up
the control fob to check batteries and dang if there is not a Linux
processor inside. Kool. Probably will not see any virus on it.

I installed a LINUX distro on the older Dell some time ago, and then I
lost interest in LINUX. So, clearing off the HD and starting anew with
Windoze 10 should be easy enough. It's not an upgrade Windoze, my buddy
sez...it's the full deal, for "home" use. Sounds good enough.

Win 10 arrived, software in the form of a USB thumb drive...machine
"accepted" it, and we'll see what happens. So far, nothing strange
happening as far as I can tell...

Will probably have to hunt for some Dell proprietary drivers...

You should wait for Don to return for the minute-by-minute continuation of this
story.

He would give a ****.

Just put your service tag number into the Dell web site and they will
pop, no hunting necessary.
