I just did the same thing on my Win98 laptop last week; from NS4 to Mozilla package and I was in the same boat as you not wanting to use OutlookeXpress for fear of disaster and since NS4 has been great since 1999 without a single problem so after I 'found' Mozilla hiding on my slackware box a couple of weeks ago I got the bug to try it on the Win98 box and was pleastantly surprized when all the mail, links etc transfered right over, like five years worth of stuff! Now if this can be done to migrate OL and OLE for those (l)users the sky is the limit for this great package called MOzilla.
Only neg report is that the Thinkpad Win98 third button is not letting me scroll. Oh well, it didn't work with Word half the time either.
Migrating From Netscape 4 to Mozilla was easy and smooth. Very cool.
This is a very important point and should be moded up; that the documents being created today are readable in the future. Think about all the receipies that you typed into that database in 1988; can you view them now? Now think about the database that contains something real important to you like your family history and the 15 years of work that went into those documents.
Where do you want to go today?
How do I look at my old data?
The US Govt will not take action either with WMDs nor Lawyers. SCO is writing a new page on how to extort money and the USG, much like microsoft, will standby and watch until it sees something that it likes, copy it, then they will nuke SCO.

The fact is that our world now runs on these programs and when they crash our world comes to a halt. Bad software is just as bad as a power outage that halts work. There needs to be an awareness by the user that 'they do not have to take it anymore' and that they can vote with their feet and get an application that just works as one expects the lights to be on when they get to work.
That is a very Good reference and when that revision came out several new questions on the amateur radio test were added specific to measuring human exposure to RF as part of this bulletin and when you take the report with all the revisions, not just the bulletin, into consideration you can calculate the heating that results from a Legal part 15 802.11 device can cause heating and tissue damage in the worst case exposure.
Did you happen to read OET Bulletin 63 that followed 65, "UNDERSTANDING THE FCC REGULATIONS
FOR LOW-POWER, NON-LICENSED TRANSMITTERS" while you were browsing? The part about the $10k fine for violating part 15 is of note.
Anyway; the replacment of the antenna and violation of the Part 15 Certification is the real issue here. Damaging your body is your own problem.
2.45GHz heats water pretty good and since the human body is mostly water you all might want to take care where you point those 99dbi yagi antenna. Yes this is the frequency that the magnetron uses to cook.

I just finished the Vonage sign up and configuration process and am now using there service. I work with our 911 center at the county EOC during activations via our Amateur Radio club and got some help from a dispatcher; so I was able to verify the following on my own:
1. Vonage does all the leg work to verify the physical address.
2. The number called by the Vonage network after you dial 911 is routed to the Central Office of the 911 center then to their public number.
3. The call shows up on the screen of the 911 dispatcher as Vonage but with your name and home address, and phone number as verified by Vonage.
4. The traditional 911 system is not used in the process either the 911 switching system nor the mapping system that each county must use in establishing service on POTS lines.
5. Vonage is going to win this one IMHO and the service is very good.
Let us see how many hot buttons we can press to get attention before the election!
1. Threaten to raise taxes to make up for 'shortfall.'
2. Claim the need for government sponsered gambling is good for the children.
3. Threaten to take away a service because of lack of tax increase.
4. Tax the hell out of least likely group to vote.
I voted in 2000 PB County by absentee and had no trouble at all. All the issue is is one of Lawyers being involved with the vote. One that happened any kind of ballot will be in jepardy. The problem was the Lawyers not the ballot.
done that. If you have been to the Yboro in Tampa whatever it is a tourist district without tourist. I went down there on a Saturday last year and it was a ghost town. Low volume and no wanted criminals hanging out is the issue here.
In my travels I see cameras being installed literally on every street corner. Welcome to 1984.
Linux is fueled by groups like Amateur Radio Operators. Just take a look at archives for clear proof. Now this is how it should be; groups of inovators creating useful stuff to improve everyone' lives.

18.11 my tax * 12 months * 135,000,000 customers = 29,338,200,000 Rounding it off to the even Billion for 30 Billion dollars a year in Tax.
The 911 funding is just the cherry on the top of the s*it sunday that we all have to eat.
Funny, I just rechecked my phone bill, and don't see charges for any of those things there.
I do not think that it is funny at all that we have a social tax and I have been fighting this tax as I live in a rural area and pay this tax twice.
Read it for yourself the FCC has made it very clear for everyone to read.
And thanks to the discussion here I just ordered Vonage to use on my Cable Broadband connection!

Just turn off ICMPs at the switch. *POOF*

These people are just going to send out invoices much akin to the IRS and the income tax. They do not have to sue.

We are talking about a party for Godzilla types here: No Flamable Gifts!
There was a Reported shortage of Godzilla heads at Spencers this week. Now I understand!
Now everyone click your heels together three times and repeat, "There's no place like home" and we can go back to CP/M and start over.

Of course there is nothing that stops the telespamers from using MCI to route the calls out of country?

Register to vote. Then vote.
I added everything up a couple of months ago, including the sewer tax, and found my tax rate at 49% of my income. This is just nutz.
So now I have a LAN at home and get to pay tax on that too; oh boy, what a deal!
Hell even my turds are taxed.
