Thanks for the new perspective :-) I recommend different kinds of mix, to go with. And maybe a tiny umbrella to go in the glass. Bon appetit. Any solvent in a storm... http://ts2.mm.bing.net/th?id=H.48540...24237&pid=15.1 Paul I'm not so sure that a drink that looks like that is suitable for a mature adult. Might be OK for me, though. -- Gene E. Bloch (Stumbling Bloch) |

I greatly prefer a laser printer. Too expensive for me. :-) Do you have a separate scanner and fax? Well, depends how much printing you do as to whether it's too expensive or not. (As for faxing, I haven't for many years, and when I did, it was using software - Windows 9x, or it might even have been 3.1! - for my MoDem; I never had a fax machine as such.) -- J. P. Gilliver.

While you do not have the bbs bat files, you can still use bat files in Windows 8.1. You have to be a little more careful as the directory name are large, but the bat files works. I think it is funny as some large companies have all of these security regulations and locks on the individual computer. But most of the computers in the system can be accessed and manipulated with a bat file. |

I often don't get very excited about the daily offering on Giveawayoftheday.com. And today was just another word processor which I tried dozens of them in the past and almost none of them impress me at all. But I must say just using this Atlantis Word Processor for a few hours has really impressed me. If you are frustrated over non MS Word word processors like me, this one is definitely worth a look. And it can be portable too. ;-) There is an update on the site to ver 1.6.2.2 http://www.atlantiswordprocessor.com/en/ Just in case someone wants to update theirs.
