Yeah, I need apps that are designed to run around the end line, er,
whatever it's called.
I guess I've got all summer to try to figure it out :-D
As you say, I think I worry about the following:

--Uhh, yeah. I think that's what I'm worried about ;-)

--but most don't, right?? Like, does Rev? I have to admit that I never
tried; once I got the "no can do" dialogue from Win2K, I didn't go any
further. My bad, I suppose. I've got this week (read, tomorrow) to give
it the 'old college try' ;-)
