Office 2000....

Once again Mother Nature decided to pay me a visit...thank goodness not
at
the boat this time. Tuesday night our phone line was struck and it
fried
the modems in both our computers. I was on the verge of deciding to
ditch
my Gateway anyway since it didn't have enough RAM to go DSL and was very
limited in upgrade capability, so I now have a new computer. Can't get
my
individual account to poll for messages, though, so I'm going to have to
see
what's going on with that after I do a few things to make this machine
mine...like delete all the crapola (games, MS Works, etc) and begin to
install my stuff. Love my new optic mouse...
