George,

I was just there for a visit.  Yes, she is still planning on moving
back to VA about the January timeframe.  She has a copy of the
next issue of RN ready to go to the printers, but is having
problems with the formatting on one of the pages.  At this
point, I'd say "To hell with the formatting. Just get it out",
but then she's already heard me say that (Right, Caroline? ;-) ).

I did install a 3.5/5.25" Idrive in her main 'bow.  It is a real slick
device.  From what she said, there are only about four in
existance. One shock was once I got the hardware installed, I
found it needed DOS 3.10b for the drivers to work.  So I spent
the day working on upgrading her system.  Otherwise I'd have
tackled the formatting problem.

As Always,
Paul
