Little beauty!!!!
 
Fred Flinstone (& Barney & George Jetson) are all looking wonderfully
heathly with no more arrows to be found in them!  Considering Microsoft
charge about $110/call for support, and still couldn't give me an answer
("But we'll get back to you *real soon now*.") it certainly makes me happier.
 
Cheers and thanks a lot.
