I have the disc to convert, but am too wary. I may wait until the next computer change. I had a new computer, just pre-Vista. I have the disc to convert, but am too wary.

Interesting that you're going the Vista way and I'm going the way of Mac. Well done, Ellee and these are indeed two worthy gentlemen.

I hope you dried her down afterwards. Vista is working ok now, just takes some getting used to, it is growing on me. Maalie, thanks for making me laugh this morning, your poor beer-soaked lapdancer.

I had to prise off a pair of scissors from my table with a chisel 24 hrs later) and I had quite a bit of trouble when I insisted that I didn't want to upgrade to Vista, for the reasons you explain.

Regarding my difficulty with adding categories via Windows Live Writer, I can vouch for one nice person at least at Microsoft who gave me the following advice via email. I don't want to lose any settings, so I shall wait until Geoff returns: "Not being able to add categories—this is due to your WordPress version being older than 2.2. WordPress 2.2 was the first version where they started allowing clients like us to add categories. You’ll need to 1) upgrade to WordPress 2.2 or higher, and 2) in Writer, go to Weblog | Edit Weblog Settings and click Update Account Configuration, and walk through the wizard. This will get Writer to realize you’ve upgraded WordPress and then the add category widget will appear." At the moment, I am writing my posts on Live Writer, then adding categories on the Wordpress software. And I consider that excellent progress after a frustrating day.
