naplesgardener, I heard some folks have trouble with the bags as well. I chalked the problems up to the type of soil and if it contained fertilizer or not. Just because its bagged soil doesnt guarantee its good or nematode free. It could be like some bottled water coming out of some dingy faucet in some garage and being sold for top dollar. My guesses also include that there arent enough holes in the plastic to allow ample air flow for the roots and to prevent molds. Also, the temperature in the bag may be wayyyy hotter than we expect. It may even be composting in the bag while we are trying to grow things. Ricky, DUH! you have provided the missing link to my lack of a cool yard! I will put my T-square and laser level back in the garage! Now, need to think of a way outta this square I created. Maybe add bags to the side instead of moving them away. An on going work in progress............

If I were in the market for a new desktop, which I'm not, I would take quick look at the new HP Touch Smart. It comes with a 19" wide screen touchscrren monitor, and is just very, very slick looking. I ran into it at Best Buy earlier tonight and my mouth about dropped open. Also, it's stacked with some hot stuff inside.

Thank you kindly, I probably shoulda used my head and googled myself. But, I thank you for the informative link, could help me a lot in the future.

Thank you Owbist. It's disconnected now as I only have one monitor. I think the screw up has to do with the name of the computer changing. I don't remember how that happened, but recognize the name so I must have done it. The failure of the updating keeps mentioning the changed name and Windows doesn't know where to install the updates. There is more, but I'm on my phone as its the only way I can get online. I would reinstall but that's another nightmare. The windows license # is pasted to the envelope with the disk and I can't read it. The # is under the flap which is glued. I tried peeling it open and the # gets destroyed. How do I find the license #?? I think if I could change the computer name and workgroup, it might work. I'd really rather not go through a reinstall,. Yes, it's office 07 and I do have the disks
