Oh, and the much-talked-about complete change to the way >Internet access works is not anything like as troublesome as I feared and, >once done, it actually works a lot better. Remember, you're talking to someone who stayed with 7.5.2 and got on fine with it... Actually, I still help out the fellow that bought the 7500 in question (how did I *ever* think it was fast?) and the original installation of 7.5.2 is still rock solid. I suspect I will switch to 8.5 or 8.6 (roll on) some time, simply because although 8.1 is working just beautifully, and is nicely crash resistant by comparison with 7.5.2, I'd like to get rid of this harmless little Eudora/HFS attachment bug. In what way is the Remote Access system better than OT/FreePPP? Not said in a spirit of challenge- I'd genuinely like to know. -- Peter
