Hi Jim, I live a long way from Pittsburgh (Vancouver, BC) but this subject comes up here too... I recommend PC IBM Clones for hardware simply because you can probably get corporate donations (free) of servicable 486's and slower pentiums. Software? Windows 95 for OS; Opera for Browser; Pegasus for free stable E-Mail; Pick an Antivirus from top 4; ZoneAlarm for Firewall; WebFerret for fast, free Internet searches, etc. I recently wrote a very long piece on E-Mail & Internet problems. If you want a copy let me know. (reflects why I use the above software with links to stories, tutorials, and downloads) Best regards ........ murray [log in to unmask]
