Hello again Jane, I still need to check things out with the PC. I have downloaded books with it before so doubt I'll have problems. The BN isn't letting me into the lists yet.
Your other site holds promises but need to investegate further. I can read the home page and log onto the site with 6.11. I didn't try to take any classes though. If real audio, that is not possible with the BN by itself. If written, you might have a chance.
