As a user of this service for many years, I know that what was requested was not against the guidelines of the list. Pushing your own company tends to be against the wishes of the list unless you work for a sponsor. The more sales LEM can generate for a company the more likely they will give more money to LEM. There was nothing wrong with that posting. But posting a request for help on a powerbook that is not marked off-topic in a Power Mac forum, that's against the standards of the list. -- Ryan Coleman Coleman Web/Internet Services http://www.coleman-web.net/ -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
