Just a programming note: It's possible the Palace may go several days without a post.  If this happens, do not be concerned.  My laptop has been acting wonky all weekend.  

Been running WAY slow, yesterday afternoon, it started making this loud noise, like a fan running quickly (or some disc spinning quickly).  It never made this noise before.  It did stop on its own.  But I ran a few anti-virals, one that normally takes about 45 minutes took over two hours.  It was running VERY slow, for everything, from booting up, to logging onto Crome, to changing pages, etc.

This morning, I attempted to use a restore point, and found I HAD no restore points, except for an automatic one made Friday night.  And i KNOW I've made many restore points on this computer, usually weekly, at least monthly.  

But anyway, I attempted to use the restore point I had, and the machine told me it couldn't reboot.  It went through some automatic self-diagnostic thingee....and now, it seems to be working okay.  How long that'll last, though, who knows?

So if you don't see any Palace updates for a few days, what happened was my laptop when tits up, and I ordered a new one.

Actually, now that I think about it, I might just order another laptop anyway.  This one is a few years old, and is still running Windows7.  I keep getting reminders to upgrade to Windows10 for FREE.  But I could just get another laptop with it on there, and it'd be a newer, presumably faster and better laptop, eh?  And if this one doesn't go totally dead, I can always have this one as a backup in case something happens to the newer one.

Yeah, I'll probably do that.  But I'm not ordering it from this laptop, in case it's been compromised, I don't need my credit card numbers going out to someone who shouldn't have them.  

But at any rate, in case you see the Palace un-updated, don't sweat it.  And if you do see it, continue to check back each day, cause eventually, there WILL be another update.

Now, carry on....nothing else to see here....
