As a German user of PS/1 2011 and 2121 I have not fully preloaded machines! Only US PS/1 have had that Prodigy or IBM Promenade Service! As member of www.geos-infobase.de I am searching for that GEOS-based Promenade (disk or hd-copy), because it used GEOS' CUA-GUI! Can you or anybody here help me? Greetings from Freiburg, Germany! Manfred Hi Tamar!

When my parents were over for the 4th of July, we were talking about SEO and my dad said, "Lori, you are the only person I know who understands how the internet works". It was an amazing compliment, and just shows how far I've come :) Yes, please do!

I didn't really grow up with computers, so it's been harder to make it all feel like second nature. I refused to get an email address in college (early 90's) because I was afraid. There, I said it. I didn't understand what email was and I didn't want to be a part of it. Then, I married a computer genuis. He insisted that I learn how to use a computer, and got us a dial-up connection to the internet. I used it tentatively for a long time. What really got me online, and this is going to sound strange, was the death of Princess Diana. I spent hours on forums and at news sites, reading people's thoughts about her and posting my own. That sort of broke open the internet for me and took away my fear of being part of it all. I've since learned never to say "never" when it comes to what I can or can't do online - proud moments for me include learning how to make my own favicon and getting sitelinks for my store. See, a non-tech girl can get the hang of life online! It's funny that I run a business that's entirely web based (no storefront, and I sell PDFs). If I can do it, anyone can.
