#3901 RE: tc #3900

tc, Yes this is the stuff i have to look at. A small note is that
the article calls what i call a boot'able disk, an emergency boot tool,
and i'll KEEP your post and look at what they suggest it should include,
as i put on extra stuff to help me like an already made config.sys
and autoexec.bat with just the basics commands that allow me
to use certain DOS programs like the one i forget the name of that
allows you to edit the command line at the DOS prompt.

What i now use when i use AOL is the following that i removed
certain lines not relevant to this discussion.

But again yes, this is the current stuff i need to know to get
running that DOS browser, and those switches i have to try
the combinations, the ram and noems i think it one or the other,
but not both eventhought the article has both on the command line.
DEVICE=EMM386.EXE RAM NOEMS

#3907 RE: tc #3900

Anybody want to recommend a good printer model?

I'm a big fan of HP.

In my homeoffice setup, I've used a crappy Canon 2010 for years now. I print very rarely. Lately, though, I've been printing more and see a stronger need for one. This one isn't cutting it.

Color not necessarily needed. Laser the best way to go?

Nothing high volume, just decent quality. I figure I can find a good one for $200 or less...

Reco?
