Used IE9 on another laptop ... no exe, no problems.

Amazing ... IE9 actually does what you want it to do; Chrome does what Google wants you to do; FireFox is so bloated and confused with constant updates that it can't make up it's mind; and Safari is still connected to Steve Jobs with an invisible Karma cable.

Last update: 4= /15/2010 KarlCaillouet@ (the obvious) Some are pretty steep. I just bought the set for $32. Vols. 1&2 fr= om Tx and Vol. 3 from Miss.

The book I had mentioned earlier, and found online, is "The Early Furniture= French Canada", by Jean Palardy. I had checked out this book from our loc= al library many times, as a reference to/for some of my past projects. It = is no longer at our library... (somemone stole it?). I liked this book. I= may buy this one, too... haven't decided, yet. =20

This book is hefty with lots of pictures, also, but not many detail drawing= s of designs or dimensions, etc. A good eye can figure out many of those a= spects. Early furniture in Canada parallels that of here in the states and= lots of it is bulk/hefty built. A little tweaking, to reduce bulk, is eas= y, yet maintain the rustic, old time appearance/style. I like this style, = as long as I don't go overboard. Too many pieces can make your home look l= ike a camp, but a few outdoor/patio uses looks nice. *Similarly, that larg= e log bench I showed at PlantFest... someone later called to buy it, for th= eir flower garden/patio area.

I don't recall seeing a sofa table in it, though. Maybe something can be i= mprovised!!

designs or dimensions, etc. A good eye can figure out many of those aspects. Early furniture in Canada parallels that of here in the states and lots of it is bulk/hefty built. A little tweaking, to reduce bulk, is easy, yet maintain the rustic, old time appearance/style. I like this style, as long as I don't go overboard.

Spot-on all the way down, sir. I was perfectly happy with Netscape Navigator 4. Bookmarking systems make or break a browser, and -all- are broken nowadays.

SUCKS, it does.

All browsers, or all bookmarking systems? I don't understand.

[Larry Jaques]

Both. All browsers today have broken/limited/awkward bookmarking systems.
