If the runout hasn't changed, my guess would be the balancer has slipped.

I hope that's the case. At least that way I have something to blame.

Back when everyone else was running XP or Win NT, my company was still networking 3.1, and when IT guys would screw something up or say they didn't know what was going on, my manager would ask me to fix it. Even got requests for me from other departments. When they "upgraded" to NT, already outdated by then, I used the excuse that I'd never used it and didn't have a clue, and eventually I was forgotten about. I found out the IT guys were making about half what I did, when good ones with some companies made as much or more. Kind of explains it...

Unfortunately, Moldy, this was at home. And you know how wives are; they never forget, not even stuff that hasn't happened yet.
