I've been bouncing between 7.6.1 and 8.1 on my Q700. The main reason why I couldn't decide was that Outlook Express 5.06 which supports gmail doesn't work in 7.6.1 officially, it "requires" 8.1. So I decided to experiment with resedit. Using it, I changed the system version to 8.1. At first this didn't work but I also added the appearance extension and that got everything going. I sure there is a better way than globally changing the System version to 8.1 like editing the Outlook Express application to remove the check. Would that check be in the resource or do I need to break out a hexedit?. But, now atleast I can check my mail and the lower footprint of 7.6.1.
