Tales of the Obsolete...Part Deux

Well, the old dinosaur is up to the task! A memory upgrade and installation of XP SP2 did the trick!. There were a couple of rounds getting the "USB<->serial" port driver set up and configured. Modified the KNK software presets for the correct COM Port (Lucky 6!) and "Wallah!" the KNK hummed right thru a test cut! Life does NOT suck entirely!

Well, it is sucky just a little bit as the car ate my laptop funds today: Waterpump, belt, labor, bleh!

But then again, bless Murphy for making me wait to get that laptop...hmmmmm, could BIGGER forces be at work here? I dunno, we'll have to see...(cue the creepy music!)
