Pentium Processing Proceeding

Hiya folks

Last night with telephone support (yep I "phoned a friend") from 4000 kms away, I successfully reFormatted the hard drive and reloaded Windows 98 so I got this Pentium going again.

I'd been without it for a year since it got infected with a homepage hijacker Trojan-virus thing

Ok it's only the earliest simplest and slowest Pentium but still has a 56 k modem etc (and other specs far and away above the 486's)

Oh I'm not "bagging" the other computer. My original 486 with a slow modem has been a lifesaver, keeping me online this last year or so. However running W95 means you simply can't access many websites nowadays. And with so many websites s-0-0- complex, they take a-g-e-s to load

cheers
