[CGUYS] Slightly OT--Reachargeable batteries

I've been using Rayovac I-C3 for several years (actually the same 10 batteries), have only just now found out they were discontinued in 2007. Rayovac has a new Hybrid brand, they claim holds a charge for 6 months. Since my I-C3 charger only holds 2 batteries at a time, I'd probably have to

This is news? That you shouldn't install a new version of Windows just to get lots of new features? I'll be clean-installing 64bit Win7 on my own machine, mostly because I want all my memory back. All other machines here will be updated only as their hardware is updated over the years. Most are

You make the new nimh batteries sound like a Bad Thing. They aren't. They're much improved, holding a charge lots longer. Any sufficiently large current battery charger can charge one of these in 15 minutes, but unless you have some great need for that, better to just settle for 4 hour chargers

[CGUYS] Tricky Eudora Question...

2009-10-20 Thread Marcio
Hi people I continue to be an Eudora fan and I keep using Eudora 7. Now I got into a problem. My Junk mail doesn´t have the sender´s addresses column. It has everything else, inclusing the subject. My regular mail has the sender´s column. I reinstalled Eudora but the situation remains the same.

I'd try dragging the column boundary where the missing column should be, as if the column boundary had been dragged to close the column to zero width, and your dragging would open up the width again. Standard procedure for restoring a lost column in any Windows window. Fred Holmes At 04:34 PM

Only in your own mind. If Macs had an OS anywhere near as good as WinXP and millions were still running it many years later, you'd brag about that. Pick one; either it's a good thing so many Mac users are dumping a recent MacOS release quickly, or it isn't. On Tue, Oct 20, 2009 at 1:57 PM, tjpa
