I've used the above method when I've been desperate and it works. Other than that, the Sharpie ink can often be rubbed off with enough effort.

Just use paper towels. :-D =================== Derek Currie [EMAIL PROTECTED] =================== http://Mac-Security.blogspot.com http://MacSmarticles.blogspot.com http://zunipus.blogspot.com http://movies.groups.yahoo.com/group/dwaynecameronfanclub http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ymorare --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's G-Books list, a group for those using G3 iBooks and PowerBooks (we run a separate list for G4 'Books).
