Greetings list, I thank all the many who emailed me on list and off with suggestions and good deals. My progress report on getting my Lombard to run like my Kenmore washing machine is...well still in progress.
I did upgrade to 9.1 from apple's website, I had to do the download at night as I have dial up. I hope to have dsl soon as my dh will be working from the house a couple days a week starting in June, tho his commute will lengthen when he has to go to corporate, but who wants to live in Illinois? Any way I tried to download to 9.2... 3 nights in a row...but it errors while we are sleeping. So I am going to try the 9.1 for a while. I downloaded Netscape 7.02 per advice for the paypal/ebay thing and have to install it today. I had to take the kids skiing yesterday, before it got too warm then violin lessons in the evening. Today is piano lessons and makeup violin lessons. Life gets in the way alot! Do I need to uninstall IE...for simplicity sake? My lombard has a floppy drive in the bag but here again is a tech learning curve...I would use my spring cleaning program to uninstall IE but I have never liked Spring Cleaning, as somehow something always goes awry after its use. Is there a better way to uninstall or clean a program off a hd? THEN, we purchased a Canon i8000 color printer (pixma? the box is downstairs) and of course it doesn't accept the memory card of my new digital directly, so as far as I can see I either have to connect to my pb or get some kind of adapter for direct printing. I decided to not get a larger format printer, for scrapbooking, as I really haven't done pages digitally anyway and I prefer more immediate art materials like pens, chalks etc. Also it was cheaper...more money for music lessons. It has six inks to be replaced individually. I have one question does my Lombard CD/DVD write CD's...if I use my Toast progam? Or is it a read only CD? Also what DVD movie program should I use? Freeware? Shareware? MacMall? Ultimately my desire is to record music/slides/pictures on to a DVD for family archival purposes. As of now, I haven't been able to or had time to "finger out" any of these to a soothing workable end....and I want world peace.

We bought the Canon at Best Buy who asked for donations to the Red Cross Tsunami relief as BB is matching funds, and Bush is allowing any donations (given anywhere i suppose, til the end of Jan) to report on the 2004-1040. It was an easy way to help those folks. Some announcer on a radio here near Chicago said it was the greatest disaster in recorded history...humpf he must have forgotten Noah, when only 8 survived in the whole world and only 2 of every KIND of animal; besides the Bible, the Great Flood is recorded in other culture's histories, Gilgamesh is oneI have read and Noah was visited and quoted on the tablets. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
