There is a time I would have understood NONE of this conversation, but thanks to Bob the Alien and Jonvon and a lady named Julie, I can at least navigate a little. Later. I'm waiting for the day when I know more about computers than just a dozen html tags. And I still need to face the unknown world of purchasing components for my computer, like a printer and scanner for instance, but I'm still too sheepish or perhaps lazy to do that. and Xavier, anything deficient on my computer I already am QUITE aware of.
