While this application looks appealing, i find it rather odd that it would require 500MB of my disk while the application itself is 446kb . If you actually try to install it, like moi, on a disk that is only 800MB free, you will fail to complete your installation. I hope they reduce the default space they allocate to something more realistic like 200MB.But if you have a spare disk hanging round, I will gladly take it :) On the other hand, this is good news for the desktop search market with Microsoft and Askjeeves planning to release their own versions of desktop search tools later this year after Lycos released their own version earlier this year. Next product - GoogleOS http://www.google.com/corporate/software_principles.html which will have Gbrowser, Googlezilla, Gword etc. -- Kabagambe Kenneth : _ /~\'_ (o o) =====oooO==U==Oooo================[ken]=============== If you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it. ======================[URL:http://www.cfi.co.ug]====== : _______________________________________________ LUG mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug %LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/
