I doubt that I will put ME back on. I didn't think it was all that
great. I am currently running NT and will only keep NT just for
occasions where I really need WINDOZE for something. I will be putting
Linux back on this system now that I have an ISP shell account. My new
ISP runs Linux on their system. It is also my understanding that MS has
made a version of IE 4 for Linux and I can probably remove NT as well
and stick to DOS and Linux on my system. For those rare sites that
require IE I can use the Linux version, but for everything else I will
probably use Mozzella (where netscape came from) or Star Office. I have
Star Office installed on NT and can probably move all of that data over
to the Linux SO.
