Subj : F-86 AND I. To : TOM WALKER From : WAYNE CHIRNSIDE Date : Mon Dec 20 2004 01:01 pm -> I was Kicked out of the Fido Memories Echo and almost booted from the -> Auto Echo for chalendging some opinions. -> Join the Club!! :-) Yeah but I got booted _preemtively_ from an echo for something I never posted in the echo but rather to another echo!!! Side note to Ross Cassell. I replied to Howie here as he inquired both in politics and this echo. I'd temporarily forgotten the BBS I'd netmail access to. For something topical someone out there in Fidonet sent me a large hard drive as an annonymous free gift!!! Still have to get a BIOS'ed I/O card as it's too big for this BIOS. I DID however manage to _start_ the process of installling Windows 98 with an old Promise I/O card but the OEM software Windows CD failed when it called for a reboot to complete installation. Only got that far as I fdisked the drive with Linux. Dog's health permitting I may snag a Belkins I/0 card for New Years! Think I'll give Windows 8 Gig and carve up the other 57 Gig Linux native and a swap partition. Thanks annonymous very much for your kindness whoever you are!!! --- Platinum Xpress/Win/WINServer v3.0pr5 * Origin: Try Our Web Based QWK: DOCSPLACE.ORG (1:123/140) .
