For a Win fanatic, have a look at my mail tosser.
Again, I am neutral. If I decide (or someone convinces me) that something is
better than what I am using, I will use it. I installed OS2 on the 486, and
moved the BBS onto that machine. I gained little from using OS2, other than
150meg slack space is recovered (1.6 gig total files), and I get to learn
more about OS2, while I'm trying to get the BBS to run faster/smoother.
 JS> fact you are making an attempt to use OS/2 is curious
Curious? Do you find it difficult to believe someone doesn't have to play
favourites all the time?

I've bought two applications in my life. MSDOS 6, and Norton Commander. NC
I still use, DOS6 is gathering dust. Everything else I have is either OEM,
used, or for the games, from people who play them for a week and then get
bored with it - then give it to me.
 SL> Stuff it. You should know why I called him that by now.
 JS> Calling one Scotty didn't phase me
It doesn't worry me either, it's just he's trying to win the argument by
making me look a mere child, who is not worth arguing with. A childish
tactic in itself.
 JS> his last name into a slur, much more offensive.  Your age and your OS

I did not set out to create such an 'offensive' remark. But it was just so
obvious, it was begging for it (as was he). It doesn't matter anyway. The
moderators don't like it, and Dave seems to be back, and he hates my guts so
much he'll die from stress before I hit 21.
Regards,
