 > Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0
 >
 > and noticed a distinct slow down in the overall
 >
 > performance, particularly in the flower and jewelry applications,
 > which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.
 >
 > In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other
 >
 > valuable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and Personal
 >
 > Attention 6.5, then installed undesirable programs
 >
 > such as NFL 5.0, NHL 4.3, MLB 3.0, and NBA 3.6.
 >
 > Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6
 >
 > simply crashes the system.
 >
 > I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these problems,
 >
 > to no avail.
 >
 > What can I do?
 >
 > Signed, Desperate

 > Dear Desperate:
 >
 > First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment
 >
 > Package, while Husband 1.0 is an Operating System.
 >
 > Try to enter the command:
 >
 > C:/ITHOUGHTYOULOVEDME to download Tears 6.2, which
 >
 > should automatically install Guilt 3.0.  If that
 >
 > application works as designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically
 > run the applications Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
 >
 > But remember, overuse of the above Guilt 3.0
 >
 > application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Grumpy
 >
 > Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0, or Beer..6.1. WARNING:
 >
 > Beer 6.1 is a very nasty program that will create
 >
 > snoring Loudly.
 >
 > CAUTION: Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law
 >
 > 1.0 or reinstall another Boyfriend program.  These are
 >
 > not supported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.
 >
 > In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it
 >
 > does have limited memory and cannot learn new
 >
 > applications quickly.  You might consider buying
 >
 > additional software to improve memory and performance.
 >
 >  I personally recommend Hot Food 3.0 and Lingerie 6.9.
 >
 > Good Luck, Tech Support
