[Terry L Smith]

The only way I would progress from the machine I have, running windoze 7, would be if the machine self-incinerated, after evoking, “Good morning, Mr. Phelps ...”.

I will not purchase a new machine with a camera installed, any sort of ‘office anything with Internet explorer inclusive’, and any sort of ‘social imbecility access’.

I’m retired, and no longer paid to have ‘office software’ on a machine. I have no existing family members, so I do not have to engage in the present rage of social imbecility software, whether video or audio, nor any need to sit before the machine’s internal camera, whether I turn it on, or Obama’s ilk.

Absolutely poetic, Terry. I agree wholeheartedly with you on that.
