This all puts me in mind of the days when hard drives were a high-end option, operating systems weren't standardized, and software had to fit on the most restrictive machine's floppy. (The TI-99 for what I was doing.) There was less than 100K to work with. Megabytes? Incomprehensible luxury. -Jerry --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/CAKSNnOF0GcDoq-_MWQwOct=xgt9eqsywebqvochndknxsqd...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
