magnetic: after making sure IFX 4.5 is happy on your peg, and as you have arexx running, i'll be trying some of my arexx scripts out and seeing how they work.
I'm sure it will all be amazing - and FAST!

then Batch Processing on a Pagasos can truly begin!

yes, greenboy, i am no longer "hobbled". in more ways than one.
(i was fine after about a week).
if Pegasos keeps up this pace we should be attending alot more shows and having alot more parties!
Woo Hoo!
even in "Montana Rural Route #11137" (where ever the Hell that is)
