Re: PCWorks: Process Explorer

I second that. I installed it and what amazes me is that
there are people 
who actually use that information. It's really for very
savvy users; ten 
years on the computer and as far as I know, I never needed
any of that 
information. I'm sure it's a find for people who service
computers. Thanks, 
Hugh, and you do have that technique of saying much with few
words I would 
say you are pithy but it doesn't sound right. --- Harold.

Similar info has been available for a long time in MS System
Info tool 
on the Accessories/System Tool menu.
These system summaries reveal very specific, detailed info
that's as 
exciting as a new John Scalzi novel. But maybe that's just
me.
If you like free and useful applications, take a look at
Source Forge:
"What is SourceForge.net?

SourceForge.net is the world's largest Open Source software
development 
web site, hosting more than 100,000 projects and over
1,000,000 
registered users with a centralized resource for managing
projects, 
issues, communications, and code."
http://sourceforge.net/


If you buy software, it's because you're not looking hard
enough for a 
free alternative. When you look at this site, remember that
there are 
other operating systems, so always look for the x86 or 32
bit Windows 
versions. If you've got a need for a specific app you can't
find, let me 
know and I'll see what I can find.
