Dale, I just did a clean install yesterday and the only problems so 
far is that FruitMenu & ASM no longer work. It DID take several hours 
though; I basically started around 8:30 A.M. and finished about 
midnight. The longest part was going from 10.2 to 10.2.3.

After installing 10.2 and running fsck & fix permissions, I decided 
to download the 10.2.3 combo update. After about 3 hours, Software 
Update quit with an error message. So I launched OmniWeb, went to 
Apple and started the download of 10.2.1. Three hours later it 
finished downloading; 3 minutes later it had been installed. I then 
re-launched OmniWeb and decided to try to dl the 10.2.3 combo. 8 
hours later it it finished; 5 minutes later it had been installed. I 
then went back and got Safari, spent about an hour playing with it, 
and finally went to bed. Needless to say, where I live DSL.Cable is 
NOT available! I may have to buy a PC (ugh) and get Starband.

Sincerely,
Dennis
