It supposed to be easy since the restore disk still there (in shrink wrap :)), but it asked me to activate and I had to call in (could not activate online).

    About CIGX: they did not get a favor ruling last year in a patent-infringement lawsuit brought against R.J. Reynold Tobacco, their stock lost about 75%. Have they file a motion for a new trial yet (they said they would appeal)? CIGX had been more than double since last month when they...
