In the time that I've used Nero 8 I've found it seems to run more smoothly than its predecessor. However, one leftover still remains that I think is completely unnecessary, Nero Scout. If you search the web you'll find many pages telling you how to remove Nero Scout from Nero 7. It's a major system hog that will suck away your resources.

ye olde 80s music page

Fri, 09 Mar 2001 15:57:30 +0900

However, there are a few bands here that have survived into the 90's. Regardless of their musical ability, the bands on this page are some of my favorites from the New Wave, Gothic, and Industrial genres.

I got most of these in an e-mail back in 1995. They've been here on my site since 1996 and have been "appropriated" by several other sites...one even copyrighted them! Oh well...
