Hello Wayne - 

WC>>> I've no real interest in HDTV either but that's all we're
WC>>> going to be left with soon and I DO watch PBS a lot. 

->> I suspect we'll have TV viewing on the internet about the
->> same time there is _only_ HDTV remaining on the 'airwaves'.
->> Question for me is will I have enough bandwidth to watch TV
->> on the internet when that happens? :-) 

WC>  Technology is moving forward fast in this area. 

Wages to pay for all this are NOT moving as fast. :-\ 

WC>>>>> I keep an eye on the classifieds for used computers.
WC>>>>> Wish I could do the yard sale thing as friends have
WC>>>>> gotten remarkable deals there.

->>>> People will part with some really good hardware once it
->>>> begins to give them problems. No one will part with a
->>>> working monitor now that they can buy a new computer
->>>> without a monitor.

WC>>> I found 2 - 19 inchers left by the dumpster at the curb in
WC>>> the last year alone, both SVGA, both work fine :-)

-> You live in a parallel universe. :-)

WC> I have to walk the dog every morning so I catch these
WC> things. 

->> I should've said here in Mich no one gives up working
->> monitors. :-)

WC> Perhaps I shouldn't mention the other 2 17 inch SVGA
WC> monitors I also found working ;-) Total four in 4 years all
WC> still working. 

I'll pretend I didn't read that. 

--8<--cut 

WC>> Kinda sucks getting old doesn't it?

->> I tell young people that all the time. They think I'm
->> kidding.

WC>>> In a way it works out pretty well sometimes. By the time
WC>>> you're about to shuffle off you really don't mind.

->> If there was only myself to consider you would be right. I
->> know you don't want to leave your dog behind to fend for
->> himself and I am 'caretaker' of a dog that was abused by
->> it's original owner and feel he deserves a decent home
->> where he no longer has to be afraid - where he can 'rest'.
->> Everyone loves Shelby (Shelbert Admiral Cliff) so far and I
->> think my younger sister would jump at the chance to care
->> for him so maybe my 'mission' here is finished?

WC> Well Spanky is 15 so it's olikely I'll survive him. Dozens
WC> of people would love to have this gentle Pit. I've printed
WC> out his care, commands and medication schedule in the event
WC> I predecease him and left it in a conspicuous place 

I see you've given this some thought. So have I.
