Local Disc (F:)

I did NOT say YOUR view is sheer stupidity. If you read it that way it is
indeed your problem.
Can't an act or notion be stupid?

You tell me that my view is "sheer stupidity," and you think it's my
imagination that I consider that rude?

Have it your own way. I'm not interested in arguing with you. Goodbye.

You are certainly entitled to that opinion, although I don't
appreciate the rudeness with which you expressed it.

However I strongly disagree. I certainly don't suggest that anyone
should purposely choose to install on a drive other than C:, but if
turns out that way, there is hardly ever a good reason to go to the
trouble of changing it.

Ken:
I most certainly don't dispute your right (or anyone else's right
for
that
matter) on this or any other forum to state your view. I fully
understand
that you disagree with my point of view. So be it. I was merely
responding
to your previous post and hopefully clarifying my position re this
issue.


OK, understood.

And I'll add that although we disagree on this point, I usually
agree
with most of your other posts and I think you generally post very
good
advice.

Ken:
Without belaboring the issue I can only repeat what I've
stated
in
my
last
post.

The problems we've run into re this issue along the lines
I've
described
involving many, many users over the years in an XP
environment
have
impressed us to strongly suggest that, wherever practical,
the
user
should
establish his/her system (boot) disk as the C: drive even if
it
means
a
fresh install of the OS.

OK. We clearly disagree.

I recommend that he stay with the setup he presently has,
since
there
is no downside to it. The OP can decide for himself which
advice
he
wants to follow.

Ken:
As I explained (or try to explain) in my previous posts, based
upon
our
fairly extensive experience with thousands of users over the
years
in
an
XP
environment, there certainly is a "downside" - at least a
substantially
potential one - in one's system (boot) drive being designated
with
a
drive
assignment letter other than C:.


Anna, I've stated my view, and don't want to repeat myself
further.
We
disagree.

I don't dispute your right to your opinion. Please allow me mine.
As
I
said, the OP can decide for himself whom he wants to believe and
what
he wants to do.

You are in need of counseling. Seriously. If you take this as an
insult, it's your problem for misinterpreting it.
