Gawd she's really trying to jinx it isn't she... :-D

Hope the holiday was good?

Been o.k. for me too and we've also got a new computer which is much faster than the one we had, so all we need now is for the boards to move a bit faster too.

Dare I admit, I've started using ''Google Chrome' on my PC, and it's quite good :-D

Edit: still not using Windows 10 - so 'should' apparently, according to some, be unable to even use the internet :-S

My error problem was fixed some time ago :-D

Now, if the NBN could also be fixed, that would be a bonus :-|

...same here, Ann.
Despite the 'doom & gloomers', surprisingly, it still works :-D

Just out of interest, I looked up 'problems with windows 7', and came across an article - unsurprisingly from Microsoft - from last year 'stating'
"Do you use Windows 7? Microsoft says you are placing yourself in danger"
It then goes on to 'state' failing security, restricted hardware etc etc - but, according to another article, this warning was mysteriously taken down in January. Why? because it was bunkum! :-D

However, on looking up 'problems with windows 10', there are a lot of sites on 'how to fix numerous common problems with window's 10.
Recently, they had a 'Chrome breaking bug', less than an hour ago, there's an article saying 'Microsoft delays the Sets feature for Windows 10'. I wonder why?
