Isn't this bad like SPAM e-mails? I know that if you reply to remove from SPAM e-mails, then the spammers know your e-mail address is legit and pass it to other companies. Can't telemarketers do the same if they are told to remove your phone number?
Dang it. The link got/.'ed. Does anyone have the page of it? I remember seeing a roach on an old project screen in sixth grade. All the kids were grossing out from the roach feelers and legs. Hehe. It was HUGE too!
I do have a burner and use it, but some downloads are always updating and changing so fast that it is hard to keep up. I wish I could get a xDSL or cable modem but they don't serve in my home area:(.
It sucks for my 26400 modem connection! I would like to download the whole package so I can download overnight, burn to a CD, use it on other computers without redownloading, etc.:(
I can't get cable modem and ADSL services in my home area (near Los Angeles). I was told my house was too far from the CO (GTE). However, I can get IDSL (144kb/sec both ways) connection but it is too expensive for my budget. Would this homebrew work for me if I were to build one or have someone build it for me? Or do I still face complications (i.e. distance)?
How much would this cost and how complex? I hate being with my 26400 modem connections (get about 2.8KB/sec) on a 56K modem. Telecommuting is impossible!:(
Thank you in advance for replies.

Q: When will these disabled features be AVAILABLE A: As soon as the module owner (developer) has debugged all the code and it works
Q: Can I get excited or do I have to chill out A: BOTH !!
Yeah, that would do. Actually, my Compaq Armadea 1585DMT (P150 MMX) was like that. I made them run different programs. Although the buttons only worked in Windozes:(.
I am one of the people who has multiple physical disabilities (i.e. can't talk clearly, cannot drive a vehicle, etc.). I can do computers very well.
Is it me or do employers get worried about people like me? Also, I don't get paid very well (35K) and it took me almost a year to find my first full-time job as a Web developer (now, I am a SQA tester for Web stuff). I am talking about salary jobs with fringe benefits, not contract work. Currently, I have been working for a commercial real estate company in testing and doing Web development since December 1998.
Anyone else who is in similiar situation like mine? Thank you in advance for replies.:)
I never had this problem before v4.72! It is a bug and others have had this problem... I was using the Windows 32 version. Are you all having this problem on other platforms? Post on Netscape's newsgroups if you have this problem!

Does that mean I can play games with it to LAN parties easily?
:)
Damn, I wish it was the same and easy for e-mails :(.
Isn't this bad like SPAM e-mails? I know that if you reply to remove from SPAM e-mails, then the spammers know your e-mail address is legit and pass it to other companies. Can't telemarketers do the same if they are told to remove your phone number?
I look forward to hearing for replies.
Dang it. The link got /.'ed. Does anyone have the page of it? I remember seeing a roach on an old project screen in sixth grade. All the kids were grossing out from the roach feelers and legs. Hehe. It was HUGE too!
Anyone figure out yet? :)
Dang it. I just started downloading. Thank you for the warning, Laven!
Is the computer playing tetris or a human?!
They rock for 4.1 speaker setup for under 300 bucks =).
Guys like to do that stuff :). Make their cars faster and better. Make their home theaters better. Why not computers' overclocking? =)
I do have a burner and use it, but some downloads are always updating and changing so fast that it is hard to keep up. I wish I could get a xDSL or cable modem but they don't serve in my home area :(.

Yeah that sucks, and we live in/near a well-known city too!
I couldn't find it either on PBS' site and TVgrid.com =(.
I cannot find it in the schedules. Thanks! :(.
All the ones I tried no longer have copies. I am looking for Windows, Linux, etc. ports. :)
Thanks!
Yeah, that would do. Actually, my Compaq Armadea 1585DMT (P150 MMX) was like that. I made them run different programs. Although the buttons only worked in Windozes :(.
One button for /. site, one for Blue's News, etc. :)
I am one of the people who has multiple physical disabilities (i.e. can't talk clearly, cannot drive a vehicle, etc.). I can do computers very well.

I was using it on Windows 98 and NT4SP6a boxes. Bah!
I never had this problem before v4.72! It is a bug and others have had this problem... I was using the Windows 32 version. Are you all having this problem on other platforms? Post on Netscape's newsgroups if you have this problem!
Hahah, that's funny! I wonder if that really happen to the real George Lucas? ;)
Oh yeah, why does Microserf sound like Microsoft? hehe.
What are all the rank titles? Anyone got the list?
Thanks.
