Also...the first month has no such limitation. Works like a charm if you are only periodically accessing machines. Um...er...well... I have no choice! [link\|mailto:bepatient@aol.com\|BePatient]

But that's because there wasn't a port of XFree... It looks really really interesting... Wade, who is going to look at putting on his laptop just 'cause he can...

After choking my disk with 180 megs I quit trying to download it. thanx, bill Our bureaucracy and our laws have turned the world into a clean, safe work camp. We are raising a nation of slaves.

Came back the nextmorning whith a wad of paper all over the floor and the still downloading. We wrote the first 8 bit terminal emulator for vpix with Fortune Systems.

Someone has said they're documentation; I've never bothered to look. I'd hate to think that you wasted a couple of CD's plus ~6 hours of downloading time on something you'll never use. -YendorMike In order to understand recursion, one must understand recursion.

It's only a buck for the blanks. The downloads were done in parallel, overnight, using only a fraction of the potential bandwidth.
