I remember I went to ANZ's AGM a couple of years ago and they were talking about how they were upgrading to Windows 2000 for their systems to maximise security and productivity. I didn't ask anything during the meeting though perhaps I should have but spoke with the director in charge of IT who fudged and ran away in the end. I think he was rolled by directors who knew nothing but they recognised the windows name.

When I left Telstra in '98 we were still using Windows 3.1 on a Novell network.

I worked for myself for over 35 years and never needed to change my name

John, in your case it is appropriate and correct, but the one we refer to as " Honest John :eek: " is anything but.
