Sorry, another note.  I'm not an OS partisan, but running Windows XP Pro and
MS Access (any version) in a VMWare Fusion virtual machine on my new Macbook
(2.1Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo) is noticeably faster than Win XP/Access on my 18
month old Toshiba Intel T2650 1.6Ghz.

WARNING: REALLY  OT COMMENT FOLLOWS
I can remember when running an IBM 360 in IBM 1401 emulation mode ran slower
than the 1401.
