I thought that either JBIL or FLEXF was supplying modem components to COMS and then COMS did the final assembly. No? (I'm WAY behind in my research, so excuse the stupid questions) Still got SCI. Added in a big way when it was tanking and am now reaping the rewards. ---------------------------------- Bucket? Hell a bucket would be a .....well...drop in the bucket right now.<g> I CAN NOT believe how hard and how long it has/is raining. Keeps coming down with HUGE intensity. Just when you think it can't rain any harder it picks up another notch. This one's gonna be bad. We were already over saturated. Any little bit of water that comes down now will cause flooding and we are getting a WHOLE lot more than a little bit. Worst part is that we have storms lined up out in the Pacific just waiting to roll in and stop our ass even more. Hell, I'm gonna have mushrooms growing in my house if this keeps up.

I recently bought a Microsoft Trackball with the wheel that allows you to "roll-n-scroll". I love it. It's great for internet use and E-mail. You can set it up so it scrolls a few lines at a time or a page at a time. The wheel can also be used as a button that you can customize for use as a regular right/left click or to call up the Start menu, Explorer, etc. It has some other neat features too. A click lock that allows you to drag stuff, highlight text, and open menus without having to hold down the button. Handy. Has a "click-saver" that allows you to move the cursor over an icon which automatically highlights, then a single click opens the program. No more double clicking.Yay! Lots of other small time-saving features like this too that don't sound all that earthshattering until you start using it daily and realize how much easier it makes working. Hey, how do I send a private message? I've answered ones that were sent to me, but I can't seem to figure out how to send one. DUH!
