You sound very old Fred. Your expectation that new software will not be as good as what it replaces would be a sad state of affairs, if it were true. Go over to Wikipedia and read their entry on IE 7. It will give you a long list of reasons why 7 is better. You can even start a new section about why it is not better and see what develops. That would be really interesting. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
