Hello netters!

	I have a number of misc. questions on which I would like advice. 
Please respond my emial and I will summarize.

1)	I am about to purchase a hard disk utilities program.  I have
narrowed my choices to either Norton Utilities and PC Tools.  I am considering
Norton because I have heard that the program is very good and comprehensive.
My question is how does PC Tools compare in this area.  I like PC Tools because
of the extras(i.e., backup, dos shell, etc.) that are included.  Which would
y'all suggest?

2)	There has been a lot of talk about the virtues and vices of leaving your
computer on all the time.  I do not want to start it up agian, but I do have
one question: what is the cost difference between leaving the computer on all
the time vs. turing it on only when in use?

3)	I will be getting a fax modem board soon. I am wondering if, when I get
a communications program, should I get a window-specific one to run in the
background or will something like Procomm suffice?

4)	I am also in the market for a dot-matrix printer.  My leading choice
at this time is the Citizen GX-140. If someone out there uses it, does it allow
you to do envelopes and labels easily? Are there any others that people would
suggest ( Note: I haven't entirely ruled out a laser or an ink-jet; however, I
would like to get only one printer and I thought that a dot-matrix would be
most practical)?

5)	while I am on the subject of printing, I own WordPerfect and I got
an offer to buy Publisher's PowerPak )I think that this is the correct name).
Has anyone used this product. How does it compare to products such as ATM and
SuperPrint?

6)	On memory for windows ( or should this be post in the windows group, 
oh well), is there any dramatic difference in running windows on a 386/33 with
4 vs. 8 MB or RAM?

Thanks in advance to all who relpy!
