I wouldn't run multiple products that aim to achieve the same thing. They'll potentially conflict and even if they don't they'll sap processing power.

It's reason your car/boat has only one ecu

Noooo Its bloatware rubbish

Vista is a complete dog .. I'd sooner have XP or Windows 7 anyday

I had Vista in an old laptop and '7' transformed it into a 'new' machine

However changing o/s 's isnt for everyone especially if you have to spend a few bucks doing it so if your happy with it.. just leave it

Thats because they are likely only to be virus carriers, that affect only PC's not the Mac they are using.

I use both Mac & PC and much prefer the Mac. I scan my Macs every so often for viruses and have never found a Mac virus - but have often found PC viruses embedded in spam emails.

If you have a Mac, you don't need to be a "geek".

Can I hijack this a little bit, has anybody else had problems with RIBnet on the ipad, one side of the screen doesn't work, can't scroll up and down and when you reply to something it reduces the screen, doesn't do it on any other app

Had that issue too biffer, seemed to resolve itself on the last update to the app. I found deleting it then to-installing it works too.

Are you up to date on the software ?
