Not liking perl is one thing, to each his own. But replacing perl with javascript? Now that's so funny I almost barfed Dr. Pepper all over my keyboard! . -- Don Krause [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems Administrator [EMAIL PROTECTED] Optiv

Stephen and dear Mandrake, I believe 300MB is still too much. 100MB is my target, 150MB is absolute maximum. Recently I was re-installing Windows 98 Second Edition. 130MB put on disk (install cabs), then - setup.exe. And -Windows installed! Additional Compaq stuff (I have Compaq Presario 1800 n
