Carrots anyone? > Dean, I can't imagine you making an opening comment like that with a straight face. You've got to be baiting the hook! The Model T was a damn good car as long as you went uphill in reverse because it didn't have a fuel pump. All tools work well if used as designed. I've got a small network in my home office, 1 Win95b, 2 WinNT4.0(1 server/1 workstation), 1 OS/2 Warp, 1. win3.11WFWG, 1 LINUX(Caldera) and the one machine that fails the most is the Win95. Even products that say "Win95 compatible" don't work half the time. My brother-in-law lives my setting up Win networks and even jokes about "Plug-and-Pray". Strip the box down to just the video card, auto detect, fix that, add the network card, auto detect, fix that, add the modem, auto detect, fix that, refix the network card, oh, remap the network resources, add the CA software, strip out all of cards and start over again, oh gosh have to add the modem to download all of the patches, but with it the network card croaks, ...blah, blah, blah. The Corvair is a stable environment until you turn a corner too hard. ;-) +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
