Before I deceive people inadvertently. I am still stuck in Microsoft land.
 Considering, Phat Linuix and Redhat (Dead Rat). I notice a friend loves
Neoplanet, but it is flakey and danrous. Eudora (Light Version) hates to
release memory and locks and becomes unusable. Netwscape works for me. Reboots
are twice weekly now. Also nice to watch the Java Code go by. Friend
(Microsoft User) loves Neoplanet, things highlu of it. I have it up again, it
is pretty but just as flakey as usual.

Wonder how browsers behave under linux, and all that. I am being careful,
except, and that would bepend on a functioning mailer only help would come
from outside. Elsewise my install will be totally on my own. Tho I know and am
relearning linux details, it still is something I have to use due caution
doing. I already have the 4.2 BSD disk but no lively, friendly all around good
community supporting it as far as I can tell.

Have Fun,
Sends Steve
