You don't get to choose what kind of replies you get. However, about an
hour in a 375º oven usually comes out about right, if it's baking potato
size, and you thoroughly wash it and puncture it with a fork a few times.

Take a whole potato, coat with oil, roll in coarse salt (sea salt is best),
poke holes in skin with fork, bake in 400F oven for 45 to 60 min, turning
after about 30 minutes to keep from getting too brown on one side, serve
steaming hot with butter and salt and pepper. Add a dollop of sour cream if
desired (or any other toppings that strike your fancy).

Sorry, don't have the time. I'm off to the kitchen with a sudden hankering
for a baked potato.

No time as it varies with temp and type of potato.
Set the oven on med to highish heat. Put potato in and leave for one
hour, then feel if it is soft and cooked. Keep doing this every 15
minutes.

THANKS!!!

It's cooking along just fine, right now it's burning some DVD's for me.
I keep my old 2000 speed Athlon for playing on the net while I let my
workhorse do it's thing.

Are you who I think you are?
