Outlook does not do newsgroups.

Oh Really? Then what I'm reading is a figment of my imagination????!! Or
is it you, Travis, who is a figment?

You're using Outlook Express, not Outlook.

OK, OK, I'm sorry I triggered this fight.

I don't use any MS program if I can help it, have never, ever used Outlook
or Outlook Express, and never will, in fact have removed as much of
Outlook/Outlook Express as I could, have removed all other MS programs
except Internet Explorer, since Microdaft insists on ActiveX for updating,
so I can't use Mozilla, so I didn't know that "Outlook" isn't just a short
form of "Outlook Express", which is what I thunk, but refer to different
programs, etc etc etc.

So kwitcherfitin, already!


I understand not using some MS stuff, but considering how cheap hard disk
space is these days, why do you waste time removing things? Just don't use
them.


Older machine, smaller HD, two OSs. Made the mistake of installing W2K
on a 2GB partition, which was touted as "minimum required." Shoulda
known better. Need W2K mostly for an estimating program my wife uses,
and use it for web access because Bell Sympatico doesn't play well with
OS/2. Bah! The "good" desktop runs on OS/2, and I've experimented with
Linux on it.

Currently debating whether to go to another notebook (for my wife -- I
have a Mac G4), or another desktop. I like desktops - I can tinker with
them easily. And there are some really good buys out there, of "old"
mobos that were cutting edge a mere 18 months ago.... H'm. OTOH, a
laptop would suit my wife just fine, she could take it to the office, etc.

Difficult....
