I'd have to concur with Jim on this one. Right after getting 6.11 up and running I plugged in my wireless card, wandered out on the deck outside my apartment, scanned for a hot spot, found one and within minutes was reading the L.A. Times. How cool is that? I'm now seriously thinking about springing for a wireless router so that I can ditch the network cables. The browser definitely works better and I can do things like my online banking, which I could never do with the older browser. E-mail seems better, though the download process isn't all that much faster, or so it seems to me. At the office, I can tap into our local network and grab files from any computer as needed, and that's cool, too. I have yet to really put the word processor and planner to the test, but that's definitely on the agenda. I really, really, REALLY hope the planner's more stable, because I've lost two of mine with KS 5.1 and that's a real drag. So we'll see what happens, but I am pleased with KS 6.11 so far. Cheers! Tom
