I'm getting over it... :-)
Very wise, if version 1 is better than 2. When I decided I'd had enough of them the code had got to the stage of "OK, we know what we're doing now, let's start again from scratch". What got released was that plus some Javascript capability. Luckily my name got removed from the credits of the release version...

Yeah, even with Doctor Drivel in full flight it's not as heated here :-)

Handy when you need to cut the shaft off one to get the drill in between two joists as well ;-)
While not as nice as auger bits, I don't have that much difficulty with flat ones it has to be said. They are also dead easy to sharpen on a bench grinder. Perhaps I have never needed to make so many holes that battery capacity becomes an issue.
I stayed down at v1.69, (Feb98), which has none of the later bells and whistles but is relatively stable.
Haven't used RS in a long time. The end came when I was trying to use their CD catalogue. :-(
I use a laptop with Virtual RPC, but do use Firefox for some jobs on the dark side.
Version 2 is the biggest waste of money I have ever made. It seems that someone decided to follow the MickeySoft way of doing things, so that even the delete key works incorrectly. Couple that with slowness and regular crashes and most would revert to Fresco. Oh, yes, Oregano 2 will not work with my router menu either, Fresco does.
Heh heh. I get the old cats from one place I work at each time they get new ones. I don't use them enough to get free ones direct.
But their website is fine and works ok with Oregano including ordering. But something goes wrong when you try to pay. Probably a Javascript thingie.
Same with Ebay. Can do everything with Oregano - but not upload pics if selling something.
So I have a fresh virgin version of Win 95 with a fully upgraded copy of IE 5.5 including all the 'plug ins'. So I can get to those sites that use the latest Java and Javascript ok.
I tried Firefox, but found it slow - and it used up most of the RAM - 30 Meg max - with no room to run 'plug ins'.
And some software deliberately tells porkies about itself, like wot I'm using.

You mean you're not using google groups?
Let's see - all the headers say that you are, but you have quoted some context, properly indented, and with your comment at the bottom.
You're right - it can't be google.
lol
