Good point, though. Many small businesses now - my own included (Wired
World, not IBM <grin>) keep all their stationery on computer and only print
out when a hard copy is required. I've sent formal quotes, orders, etc on
my letterhead, with my signature, electronically. In this case, since most
word processing programs now have html capabilities, the web address is
clickable from the letter.
Oh and btw, Barry - yes I do have a tux. And half a dozen other suits, too.
;-)
There's one other point - not every browser automatically fills in the http
and www for you. There are still some that you actually have to type in the
right address yourself (shock! horror!).
i know my copy of Grail does. What about Lynx? and Opera? do they?
