Too much hbuttle and software to install. I even stopped the computer repair work I did as I got sick to rest of nothing but reinstalling winders and installing anti-virus and anti-spyware...

If you have 8 PCs, you must be using it for something productive, therefore paying $200 for each copy (or $100 for Windows...
