Well, that and it's not really a good idea to just throw an old computer away, or put it out for a bulk trash pick-up...too much stuff that can leach into the soil. And I have a fundamental problem with throwing something away that could still be useful to someone, somewhere. (That's why I have my old Power Computing Mac and my Father-In-Law's LC 575, which he stopped using when he inherited my original iBook.) BRIAN/bpearce at cloud9.net
