A bit OT but: Does anyone know how to get a MSDOS prompt on a window98 computer which doesn't list that option anywhere? My son needs to backup everything from his new laptop which has windows98. It would be easiest just to run ftp from the command line but we can't find a way to get an MSDOS prompt on his fancy HP powerful laptop computer. The fancy windows GUI ftp client doesn't have a way to select all files at the same time. I know, I know, dump windows, but he has to use windows at school. Everytime I work with windows I am astounded by what an awful operating system it is but its what we have to work with. He is tired of windows98 crashing several times per day. So, he is going to install XP professional ($20 [no upgrade] from his school bookstore.) I may be tempted at that price. Joel
