My only problem with changing the format to somethingelse is I don't know if my Commodore 64/128 will handle the graphics and pictures people will post. For real I just had to open a GMail account because my ISP wouldn't let me get vanagon emails. I have had the gmail account for a few years and never used it till now. I need adjust some of the settings but so far I like it more than my att yahoo account. I do agree and equipment upgrade could most likely be used but I fear the problems that usually show up when making these kind of moves. Bill
