Here's my pie-in-the-sky dream:  I'd like to have a decent desktop
publishing program.  The one thing I find myself booting into Windows
for is to use MS Publisher.  Once you give that annoying paperclip
mascot the boot, it's a nice program for what I need to do.

So I'll probably never get that advanced, at least while I'm trying
someone else is probably doing, and I'll be keeping my mind off of my
fustration until that other person's project is released!

Other than that, there's probably a bunch of little things I'd like to
do, but I can't remember them right now!  I guess one of the things is
that I'd like to start designing some themes and I'd like to be able to
understand enough so that I'm not lost when I need to alter the behavior
of theme elements.  I'm also interested in how programs are ported from
one OS to another.

regards,
Beth
busy today with tournaments, and better get cracking on lessons 1 & 2!
