 HG> Happy New Year,

And the same back to you!  As I write this, it is now roughly 4pm in your part 
of the world, and 9:30a in mine.  Hope your 1st day of the new year is great.

I have this day as a time away from work. It is a welcome respite from the 
usual hectic pace, responsibilities and duties of retail.

The *plan* was to do same basic computer clean-up: [1]purging email folders of 
outdated material (because MS Outlook has trouble working with .pst files that 
are 2GB), and [2] popping in some extra ram (that I bought over 6 months ago!) 
into a main pc at work.  But.. I decided I'll just veg out today.

And.. what brings you (OS/2 user) into this WIn95-specific echo? <g>  I think 
many of the familiar names in the past have moved on (one way or another).  
This echo was a fine hang-out for many things Windows. Much good help and 
advice arose.

Who really uses Win3.x/95/98 anymore except for limited things? :(

I was completely happy using OS/2 2.1 and then Warp for my 
fidonet/echomail/sysop/bbs purposes in the past (until I had a hdd crash).  I 
loved its smooth integration of Win support.

But in reality, the newer OSes (even the linuxes) seem to be much better! <G>

That part of the world looks amazing.  6,700 islands!

Have a good day, and a wonderful year ahead.
