I still use Office 97. I've never liked 2000, especially the abominations it laughingly refers to as "help" files.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Does Earthlink require you to use their software to connect via dialup?

No. I've never installed it, and I've been with Earthlink for roughly forever. They keep offering new versions; I keep sneering.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yup. I tried the earthlink software, years ago, and ditched it straightaway. I've moved on to greener pastures since then, but I was always happy with earthlink.

I found Open Office really annoying in a couple of ways. For one, I can't do the edits to files I want to make in order to clean them up to drop into an HTML template. Open Office doesn't allow you to select hard carriage returns, for instance--they're not recognize the same way Word does.
That said, it's way cheaper than MS Office, so I'll struggle along with Open Office and my beta of Office 2007 (which I still don't like much).

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but I need some lj help.
Over the last month I've found that certain styles of journal won't load properly for me. I get the first screen's worth of entry, but can't scroll down. Any ideas why this is happening?(My browser is Netscape 7.0 for the Mac)

Suela, what's the exact s&r clean up you do? I was able to get it to find and replace paragraph tags using regular expressions ($), though it took me a couple passes to nuke them all. ETA: [link]
