thats a good idea Denis. Why not add:
Office-
Errata- (molecular weight calculator, tea timer, etc.
fun, random or otherwise off the wall for the typical
user kinds of programs.)
to the check boxes?
Be sure to include clear indications of what is
installed with each of these options. That seems to
be the real issue for a lot of us. Clear indications
of what is included.
You guys ROCK!! I am so pleased to be able to give
you feedback like this. Thanks for asking and
listening to all of us.
