What is with all the thread titles in all caps? It makes my head hurt. Could we try to keep the noise down, please?

There should be a mute button in your tool bar.

That's not shouting, it's just people posting on the internet using their VIC computers, which don't HAVE lowercase letters.

Oh, wait. That was back in 1983. There aren't that many people signing onto the web using VICs, are there ... Mostly, I suppose, because Microsoft Explorer hasn't been ported to it. Maybe something about the 8K of RAM.

Anything by Microsoft has no hope in a million years of operating on 8k or RAM. Oy!

There is no greater memory hog than the Windows OS, except perhaps Internet Explorer

512 kB should be enough for anyone. [Big Grin]

I thought my VIC-20 had 4k of memory. I think it might still be in my parent's basement somewhere, along with my 150 baud VIC-MODEM. Sounds like the kind of challenge I don't have time to succumb to...

Hey! I'm sorry I was born in 1990! We were always very advanced in technology, so we had Internt by '94, and broadband by '99 or so. We used a 486 for a while, until we got a Pentium in '95.

And Israel always lagged behind the States by a few months.
