Wenchy's new laptop

[Snoopy]

If it runs Linux are files created on it compatible with a PC running Windows?

Yup.

I simple email them to myself or for larger docs I can commit them to a memory stick and transfer them over onto the PC.

[Nick]

Pity I don't need a new laptop 

[Grumpmeister]

Simple solution there Nick, just start fiddling with your current laptop and let the curse of Captain Calmaity take hold. Hey Presto, you need a new laptop to replace the one you've just knackered.

I think it runs OpenOffice which you can tell to create MS Office (Word Excel, etc.) compatible files...

The Boy had a bash at doing that for me, thank you 

[Grumpmeister]

Ah, but the Boy doesnt have your almost supernatural abilities for cataclysmic cockl ups Nick.

Dont be daft BM, you know they don't allow pets in there.

Nah ~ been taking photos of the Scarecrows ~ for judging purposes. Driven bloody miles with SWMBO reminding me every five minutes that we have to get back by 5 so that the boys can go to their swimming lessons.
At 4.20 THW, who had stayed at home, phoned her mother's mobile to say that the swimming coach had called to cancel tonight's session as they don't have enough life guards or something.
McD's was by now behind me and I am in a bad temper with all the nagging and "If you turn down heres" given 50 yards past the turning  
SO we came home.

Ah, you installed a SatNag snoop. 

[Nick]

I let Mrs Nick hold the SatNav for me one day last week.She immediately turned it upside down. Why do they do that?

I would normally agree with you but I have reasons of a non-technical and specifically girlie nature for wanting the other one.
