Well, I would like it if George would vanish. David I can live with.
The problem with the kind of software you're talking about (if I get
the picture) is that it works with non resident code it has to import
from the web. I use Netscape 2 that is resident code and comes up and
operates much faster. My FreeAgent is also resident code. I use just
the public telephone lines so resident/nonresident software execution
speed is a significant issue for me. So I'll probably stick with the
quo status.
