For instance, the responses from Acorn people has been intriguing to me. I thought those machines had died and gone to heaven. I never hear about them any more, much less any comparison to the big 3. See that? Increased information and learning. Isn't that what this is really all about? It is for me. -- Chris Van Cleve aka Amazing Vanish President, Dreamscape Visionery ------------------------------- If you don't know how something works, RTFM. If that doesn't help, make some SWAGS.
