Re: [CGUYS] Computer Clock settings (was [CGUYS] iMac problem)
I have a perfectly good fax modem that connects to a serial port, and no reason for buying a new one. The new computer doesn't have a built-in modem. I could connect the serial modem with a USB to serial adapter, but that's a nuisance. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. For me, the cost saving of doing without serial, parallel, floppy is insignificant. Every once in a while there is something I need on an old floppy that hasn't been moved to newer media yet. . . . And, oh yes, I have a perfectly good printer that works off a parallel port. Its PostScript interpreter is a lot better than the one that comes with my newer printer.

Hey Tom, seeing as you are so far into the future, can you give us some stock tips or maybe some of tomorrows headlines? ;-) Richard P. This is very weird. The email I posted, which you are responding to, has not been delivered to my mail client, and you are responding tomorrow! * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
