*OT* << Francis - If you bought Mac OS 8, you already have IE on the CD.- Allen >> Aagh. Just too late. I went over to Stanford and downloaded the whole 12MB onto a JAZ cartridge (in a minute or two...), drove home, and installed it straight off my home JAZ drive. The driving was a mess, but the transfers were models of how things should work. FIDO PS. Anyone know where I can download MacOS 8.1beta* ?

Allen: OT - Computer questions I am trying to install an external device which can run either on USB or a parallel port. The parallel port is unavailable because a hardware dongle on the parallel port sets up a conflict situation with Windows 95 A, preventing the hookup of a parallel port external device. The motherboard is USB compatible, but the card is not installed. Question 1: Is USB sufficiently independent of the parallel port that it could work where the parallel port will not? I am trying to decide whether to have that put on. Question 2: The proposed USB device requires Windows 95 4.0 B. Isn't that an OEM program? Do you know a way to get it? If you know any of this stuff, I would appreciate it. Thanks.
