It's a I wasn't talking as a theorist either, but perhaps I've simply worked in a wider array of environments than you have. I can certainly say that my needs would be rather ill-served by MacOS 8, whereas is appears to be more than enough for you. But hey, nobody's forcing you to upgrade, right? Just stick with your little dalmation-spotted G3 box and I'm sure the shareware sites will continue to keep you supplied with software for years to come, just as they do for the Commodore 64. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
