HG> Happy New Year,
And the same back to you! As I write this, it is now roughly 4pm in your part
of the world, and 9:30a in mine. Hope your 1st day of the new year is great.
I have this day as a time away from work. It is a welcome respite from the
usual hectic pace, responsibilities and duties of retail.
The *plan* was to do same basic computer clean-up: [1]purging email folders of
outdated material (because MS Outlook has trouble working with .pst files that
are 2GB), and [2] popping in some extra ram (that I bought over 6 months ago!)
into a main pc at work. But.. I decided I'll just veg out today.

And.. what brings you (OS/2 user) into this WIn95-specific echo? <g> I think
many of the familiar names in the past have moved on (one way or another).
This echo was a fine hang-out for many things Windows. Much good help and
advice arose.
Who really uses Win3.x/95/98 anymore except for limited things? :(
I was completely happy using OS/2 2.1 and then Warp for my
fidonet/echomail/sysop/bbs purposes in the past (until I had a hdd crash). I
loved its smooth integration of Win support.
But in reality, the newer OSes (even the linuxes) seem to be much better! <G>

That part of the world looks amazing. 6,700 islands!
Have a good day, and a wonderful year ahead.
