Okay, so you can solve the key repeat in the menu.

Harry uses Clip, I don't. TAME and Clip.exe simply don't get along on
certain hardware. Instead, I use TAME's ability to use the WIN

"Clipboard menu for copy," in which you check all the choices.

At the university, I notice that the computer store's main DELL
desktop comes with XP only. I'm leaning that way.
