[IMPORTANT: How YOU respond to this polite request will tell us all if you are legit. Sure, YOU can HIDE my comment and BLOCK ME. But many many many Listians know about this message because I leave the exact same one on many auctions like yours. If they see a HIDDEN COMMENT from OldDogEyes (me) on an action with a ZERO FEEDBACK seller (you), they will know that you HID this request and know that YOU are in fact NOT LEGIT]

Welcome to Listia!

Polite Request: Can you please post a picture of the item with a paper that has your username on it? As a new Listia user this is helpful to let us (your potential bidders) know that you are legit and in fact do have the item in your possession.

If you choose to ignore this request, 1) you will definitely get less bids and 2) your auction will be flagged by many Listians and will likely be deleted by a Listia Moderator. So if you are a legit user, please take this important step...

In the meantime I have FLAGGED this auction which will summon a moderator. I encourage others to FLAG it as well. Of course if/when you post the picture(s) that I have requested, I'll gladly remove the FLAG. This isn't meant as an insult or accusation of anything. It's a simple request to vet yourself and your item. BTW, I am aware that this may SEEM like a rude message. Please understand that it is NOT intended to be rude in anyway and LEGIT sellers often appreciate the tips on how to legitimize their auctions.

Good luck!

PS A tip to fellow Listians ... I bid on every "fake" auction so that, once the auction is deleted, I get a message "An auction that you bid on has been removed"

Wow. Windows 95 is outdated. Do you think I can update it with a new operating system, possibly Windows XP or that 7 thing? If yes, how? Not a techie here. Thanks!

Every Operating System you install on a computer adds a heavier workload on it and general slows it down.
With that being said, I have an old computer which was designed for windows NT & 98, I've loaded XP on it and its still quite usually for general stuff like word/powerpoint/excel and photo editing software it just cant handle a big workload.
If you upgrade it, the most it would take would be XP, after that Microsoft Operating Systems need much more Ram and a better processor so you would not be able to install Vista or WIndows 7. To update it, you would need a copy of windows XP (probably someone will list it on here) or you can go out and buy a copy. I wouldn't recommend downloading one off the web though... Microsoft checks and it can be burden on yourself...
