I have 3.01 right now, but won't use it anymore unless I sign up for a ISP.
3.01 has mail built in. I put 4.08 32-bit on a 95 machine and was surprised 
that mail wasn't included in the BASE Browser. Later I d/l 4.75 and to my 
surprise, I found mail was included in it.

That machine went to the service department and came back with a new HD.   
<OUCH>

I hadn't backed anything up from that thing in a year, so now it has 4.08 on it 
again.
I really didn't expect the problem I put it in for to require the HD to be 
replaced, so I went ahead and signed the form saying it HAD been backed up.   
;-)

I had that 1.34 GB drive 2/3rds full of stuff I had d/l from the net, i.e. NS 
4.75, Eudora 4.x, Adobe 4.0 etc.,  etc...... You know...The stuff that it is 
going to take another 1 hour session [EACH] to get back.
I say 1 hour because I use a 28.8k modem.

I'm waiting for the stores to get a USR v.92 External before "I" UpGrade.

MB> The 'ole catch 22 routine... I tried it on  pentium 1 system with twice as
MB>much RAM, but still the same ole thing..  Guess i have to upgrade

I've also found that I sometimes have to click Start - Programs - Internet 
Explorer, just so I can see whats on someones page.

It's no big deal to me.

At least I'm NOT Blind.  I said that, because I have heard that Blind people 
have had trouble "viewing" some pages.

I don't have any experience building Web Pages, but it seems like no one makes 
any 'GENERIC' pages that work with EVERYTHING!
