  1. Opera is good, agreed. I use both Fire Fox and Opera. I prefer Fire Fox. Each to his own of course.
  2. Much better now, Barb:-) It is a sunny 59 up here in northern Canada. Just got back from a long walk, what a beautiful day.
  3. A juvenile way of saying "I dislike Firefox". C.f. 'M$', 'Winblows', 'Internet Exploder/Exploiter', 'Dead Rat', etc. Point well-taken jcl! Let us not get into a flame-war about browsers ,guys, okay?
  4. Thanks, didn't know that, jcl. That behaviour seems very M$-like, doesn't it? I think Google is also bent on world domination.
  5. Which browser doesn't work? Opera Dang......perhaps this is as good a reason as any to give Fire Fox a try. Fire Fox 1.5.0.6
  6. Weird indeed! I don't know why Google would leave out Opera. Perhaps the code for Writely would be too complex if Opera was included? I think Safari is maybe supported, I know a mac user who uses Writely.
  7. I agree:-) It is very good indeed! Also because it is created by Google you know there will be money behind it and it won't be beta forever.
  8. I just discovered this; Google has created an on-line word processor that has similar features to word. I just registered with it and gave it a try. I think web-centric applications like this are the way to go. I tried it on my linux box and it doesn't hog a lot of system resources. It works with FF and IE. What do you think? Writely Word Processor
  9. It is 46 degrees with a few clouds today, it should warm up a bit soon.
  10. I agree completely with building a customer base by being inexpensive and giving a way some service for free. That has been what I have been doing: free data backup with reinstall(this can take an hour sometimes), free pickup and delivery(sometimes), reccomending free antivirus, instead of selling them some. When I deliver a computer, I will offer to reinstall their printer drivers, and free phone advice, many other things I should be charging for. All of these things could and maybe should be turned into real sales. I ponder this question all of the time. Charge more(going rate) for services
  11. Brrrrrr.............it is now 61 degrees up here in Northern Canada. That of course is still shirt sleave weather:-)
  12. LOL to continue..................... obligation
