l.d.....I've been laughing, too....remembering your "two rules of
computing" given previously (well, maybe they weren't called that),
and it has been fun to watch this thing go around....
BTW, my first "really nifty computer" (as opposed to just a "workhorse"
computer, was an Epson Geneva...64K...CP/M, microtape drive, and
external 320K, 3 1/2" floppy....and I loved it....and I still have it
...it doesn't work, and I'm not gonna waste the time going in and
replacing all the internal Nicad batteries...but I just can't get rid
of it.....and last week my ISP Tech and I were talking and he said
we hadn't progressed too much, and I had just said that I didn't have
enough zip100 disks, and we both broke out laughing at the same time,
cause that IS hilarious....
........gregy
