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.
