FUCk COMPUTERS

[Jeffrey Fisher]

as someone who wrestles with microsoft word on a daily basis as a main part of
my job, and who uses a mac on an nt network with the isa proxy server, i feel
your pain. word is garbahj, imo.

i probably won't be much help on outlook, but it would probably also be useful
for folks like steve to know what operating system you're on.
