That's the better solution I've found so far. But I think you're missing something that I also recommend besides that: a good operating system. Our company has been asking everyone lately to forget about Win/95-98 machines and upgrade to Win 2000/XP Pro. That had save us from a lot of headaches specially in a country like this where the power supply is not the best.

I'm a mixture of Albert Einstein and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The only trouble is that I got Einstein's body and Schwarzenegger's brain
