Cannot get through on bbs--locks up after baud rate. I did get through once and was asked for user id. Hell, I've got no idea what my user id is, I only made one purchase (last one) and I print screened most everything I tried my usual pws if thats what they mean by id, and got cut off after 2nd try. I was going to log in with an alais and then tell the truth in a message to the sysop. But I guess they must drop IDs when they ahve your $. I just realized my modem was off hook to zenith the whole time I was composing this message. Look out for the hidden costs. Buyer be ware. You get < what you pay for. jim c --- þ DeLuxeý 1.1 #6167 þ Now using Qmail DeLuxeý...and loving it! -- Executive Network Information System (914) 667-4567 International ILink Host
