You silly twisted boy!

The only M$ products which work anything like as advertised on my 6100 (OS
8.1) are those for which I've paid ie Office 4.2.1. IE and its friends
including Outlook continue the 'user-friendly as a cornered rat' theme of
DOS which permeates M$ offerings. Netscape 4.01 is imperfect but fits my
requirement for a browser better than IE, Newshopper works very well as a
newsreader even if unsupported and Eudora Lite emails very well. I'd use
Claris Emailer if I could be bothered to change a set-up which serves my
purposes perfectly well, but that's about it - why introduce planned
obsolescence into your set-up by mixing with undesirables?
