Jo Ann > from Houston Hi All, As I've said many times, a 386 with 8 Megs of Ram & Win.3.1 CAN access the web! I use Pegasus e-mail and Opera very successfully on 386's. Opera is the "browser" (as opposed to AOL, Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.) You can download a 30 day free fully functional evaluation copy at: http://www.operasoftware.com Now I admit it's a bit tough when you can't access the site to download it in the first place, but it's just one more hurdle. You may have to get someone else to download it for you. If you had enough room to install AOL then you have plenty of room for Opera..... Now if you want to run Lynx or Arachne on a 286 then that's a whole 'nuther ballgame but it's also possible tho limited. All the best ................ murray [log in to unmask]
