Well, I have removed the IBM rt from my aladdin, and have fixed the aladdin so it does not go way back, I put the genie rt in it's place. I haven't been back on yet, because now I am trying to read what I have. I had to quit last night, and so it will be a mess when I go back to reading since aladdin does not keep track what I read, since I had to exit it. I don't like this feature. I don't know if I am going to keep genie after this month, because I just don't have time to read that many messages at one time after I finish reading my messages from the fido echoes. I just don't know if it will be worth it to me. I have to the 9th of next month to make up my mind.
