Ah, so that's what it's called. It's a bit weird because the centre of the screen moves with the mouse. Still, it could be handy for the occularly challenged amongst us. I now have THREE pairs of spectacles! One for computing, one for TV watching and one for driving. :-( >And Martin... shame on you... you said Alt-Command... don't you know >in Mac parlance, it is OPTION not Alt. Alt is an evil PC term :-) I merely copied what is printed on my brand new APPLE keyboard, which I bought from the UK APPLE store last week. In fact, looking at all four of my Macs, the only one that has "option" is the 1999 iBook which has that word printed beneath "alt". I mean, I would hate to confuse anyone who has bought a Mac in the last 6 years! So maybe the shame is not on me but on Apple? ;-) >-chris ><www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
