OT: mistakes

Umm, I'm probably teaching granny to suck eggs, but you can just download messages again.

Been a long time since I used OE, but you may be able to chosse just to d/l the last 100, say, so you don't have to wait for a few thousand!

Can you reset your news reader options to read all the messages as opposed to just the new ones?

Yes, Richard, that is what DS said this morning. I told him for my B-day & Christmas this year, I expect a new Apple, he has had one for two years and loves it. I began with a Tandy in the 80s, their first laptop; then I've had a couple of TRS desktops, and later, I got an H-P, and this is my 4th one of them. I still like Windows 98 on the desktop in the breakfast room. I keep this laptop in the sewing room for sewing and sometimes use it for e-mail. The older ones go to the DGC, so they will have their own, instead of sharing. Emily

i lurk here often ... and i just got a new apple laptop and i am over the moon about it , it is my 3rd one. Does anyone know anything about any pattern making software for apple? Stephanee

I have no personal experience, but my DD loathes running PC apps on her Mac using Virtual PC.

Wild Ginger do their Mac compatible, I believe.
