...at the moment my computer systems are patiently on a
rotation, sitting around in pieces until their time to be dusted off. I'm still
enjoying the windows xp experience on the conexant modem, it's a classic for me
with sound of the dialing tone and the pulse dial. Take care and lovely to hear
from you Alastair.

I'm enjoying the windows xp experience with sound OFF, and an SSD that replaced a HDD. :D

oh you know I love that xp hello/goodbye jingle, goes well with the grassy hills and blue skies, they might have put a stripey red air baloon in there somewhere...

Maybe it's part of the animated version.

Oh.. I've long since changed the background/boot up image. I've disabled the "windows" sounds so no hello/goodbye jingle. I usually go into standby to get back where I left off quickly.
