cheers andy and mike for your solidarity in sharing my stupidity you ask wot my system is, well im afraid your still pitching at too high tech level for me, i believe its made of paper mache or something. anyhoo can you give me a rough (or precise would be better) of a decent basic standard of comp ie memory and stuff like that hard drive ram processor etc (impressed?) i love this web site i feel so wanted and with like minds at last! i am also concentrating on funny and sometimes dark humour type scripts so if anyone would like to collaberate with tech expertise that would be a real bonus. also mike thanks for splitting my message (whatever that means) how do i know i have a reply or will iget an e mail? are my questions too long? :P
