It was known from the | beginning but never fixed.. Kind of hard for people to use Sprint,MCI,or | god forbid something like PC Pursuit. +--------------- Why anyone would use a 586/986 for *anything* is beyond me. (Some of our clients apparently think otherwise. *I* think they've got rocks in their heads. [Don't tell my boss I said that.]) ++Brandon (Disclaimer: I just program the things. My boss sells them, but he didn't ask my opinion first. I'd prefer *real* computers....) -- Brandon S.
