Hi Anne,
  It was very thoughtful of you to think of me and offer your very
  expertise advice.  I have heard alot about you...all good.  
  I've had GeoWorks for about 6 years and never really mastered it.  I
  hear you do DTP on it.  Anyhows, Windows came out and seemed to take
  the whole world over.  I couldn't fine any programs for Geos and was
  at a stand still until I found this echo.  Boy, I lucked out here, so
  many people willing to help out.  I am not a Windows kinda woman, I
  find Geos much more user friendly and I still love it.
  I am ordering Terri's fonts on a CD, which is coming out this week.
  Chris Salleck, Michael Clasquin, Paul Lampert and Bob O'Brien have
  been my support...and now I hope I can add you to my list.  As I said
  above, NY is not the place to find any Geos programs/users.
  Thank you for your reply and the information.

  I do not have a backup system...it's on my "wish list" for my husband
  and children...I usually start one at the beginning of the year.  This
  way they know what I want or need.  :)  Sure an expensive hobby.

  Small world!  Not far from me but I haven't been there in years.  One
  of the BBS boards I belong to, lives there and said it is still one of
  the better parts of Brooklyn.  Kings Highway is changing like all the
  boroughs around here are.  I'm in Queens and that too is becoming a
  slum area.  I see you're in Texas now...don't know how lucky you are
  to get out of here.  I friend of a friend is now looking in Texas for
  a home.  I don't know exactly what area she is looking into.  How long
  is it since you were last here?
  Thanks again Anne.
