Rick: I think starting up a small business section, ie, how to use your Model T in business, would be an excellent idea. As you know, one of my pet peeves is that most businesses use their computers as nothing more than an electronic typewriter. They will do much more. For example, I'm using my T200's Multi-Plan to keep my books in. This new section would certainly expand the scope/use of your board. RE: "how many more times can we cover the subject of how to set the date and time"; probably more than you probably realize. To new/bottom end users this is major stuff, and can be extremely terrifying/frustrating. I've been at this for five years now and still know very little technically. I've just lost two weeks worth of business time to having to fight technical problems that were hampered by my low-tech computing. This stuff is second nature to you/nerds/high-techies. It's not to the vast majority of people. These people need _LOTS_ of TLC/nuturing--something the industry plain and simply does not provide! BIG Jose
