Ah, I installed 10.1 and then couldn't get a critical app to work, so
I had to reinstall windows for the sake of being able to use the app.
The app is trading software related to the markets, which is critical
for me to have access to.

I now realize that I can use the app with linux via wine, but I am now
waiting for my new comp of Linux Pro Mag. to come in the mail, because
it includes 10.2 on dvd, which I want to upgrade from.

Best,
