One thought I had was to use plastic film cassettes and walk through the scanner. Since I bulk load most of my film, this could be an advantage. I will try it on my next international flight. Bob Rapp - Original Message - From: William Robb [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent

Have you ever had a Compaq and tried to get service or online help? My wife's Compaq notebook fell over and she is now using my 4 year old Dell Latitude C600. That computer has been around the world 2 times, in some of the harshest conditions, and it keeps right on ticking. Bob - Original
