Ah well, at least through Windows one can see what one is looking for, (if one is computer savvy of course), in my case the blinds tend to be partially drawn but things are becoming a little brighter as the winter darkness turns in spring sunshine.

This is not to disparage Taddy at all, but we know that he is a six month old baby when it comes to questions about technology….he himself will freely admit to being so.
And as for using Linux…..well,Sorry Restless, but we KNOW Taddy is totally in the dark about Linux.

of course asking if taddy was using linux was a hint of sarcasm
