Hello from Gregg C Levine obviously with Jedi Knight Computers
Um what do I mean by that term? Yes indeed. Pre-century means, either
Win95, or Win98. Both of which run here. And loudly. And I am not asking
that question. Every time I work with Cygwin, and eCos, I grab the
latest, and greatest, from their storage points on the Internet. Why?
Did I confuse you? Or any of you? Oh, and I am subscribed to an
appropriate list for eCos, I am also subscribed here because logically
it makes sense. Sort of. Any other questions?
