BB> 700 files!  :)  Never a problem here back in my DOS days.  :)

 RJT> Much of that was archived messages.  :-)

Ahh, got ya. :)   I never archieved all that many - just the funny ones. :)


 RJT> I have yet to get going on that process,  though I'm a bit closer to it
 RJT> now than I was,  this past week.

Only way to go, the blanks are so cheap and hold so much they offer a 
attractive storage device to me.

Course now you hear the arguments that they don't last that long - window 
seems to be from about 3 years up to whatever. :)

 RJT> Different tools for different jobs.  I find GUIs appropriate for some
 RJT> things, but not all that much.

 BB> I think the Lx world finally came to the table with them as well.
 BB> But the nice thing about Lx is you can do as you wish; want to use
 BB> command lines - do it!  Want to use a GUI, then load KDE or Gnome
 BB> - and probably some others out there as well?

 RJT> Sure.  There are a lot of window managers out there,  some of which are
 RJT> considerably less resource-intensive than either KDE or Gnome.


Only two I looked at were KDE and Gnome - both very win like.  :)
