Subject: Re: Assistance required. Jaguar bugs with beige 233 DT Date: Thu, 1 Jan 1970 15:55:46 +1000 From: Santa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (G-List) To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (G-List) Is it safe to assume that your battery is bad since the computer is putting out the date of "1 Jan 1970".
