Sorry about that. I'll rephrase it with another word.
BTW, I'm not homophobic. My best friend is a lesbian and I'd die for her.

My laptop goes into sleep mode after a while in screen saver,

I have a XEM5600 but I don't know what com port it is on. Any

everyone know when she is finally up and going, it shouldn't be long now,
