Michael,
so my argument is to place a few more KB's in a mailing. This will
eliminate the MB's associated with surfing that it often takes to
locate the given articles in their entirety. Mail tend's to be less
of a hog then surfing. as for much of the extra mailings that
post limited data they add more band with clutter then the
difference in the size of the mailings. would to add my personal
data on this, discussion, i pay for a thumb drive modem that has a
limited usage and by no means would josh's full articles cause me to
break my limit. MY request WAS in no way intended to sling mud
at josh but to make more of his information available to those just
trying to learn the mac. with limited time. Josh no personal attacks
intended.
Thanks,
Pete
