Hi BK,
I remember the Cassieopia. Kewl name. Speaking of old hardware, I used to have a TI99A and a Commodore! I liked computers long before they became so popular.
I hope you (and your wife) get some well-deserved rest... two infants. No wonder you are awake all hours. If you ever need some baby/childrens music, check out
www.pbs.org they have a 24/7 Sesame street radio for kids that looks like a colorful boombox. You can get lullabies or songs or games to play continuously.
Spinner Radio was the precursor to the Netscape Radio... about 18 months ago, when they were making the transition from Spinner, I first heard about it and D/L ver. 4.0. As I learned to use it I read forums there and folks said they liked the old Spinner better than the upgrade. So I just kept the old version since it worked well for me... and I still like it today. I get used to software and when it works well I am hesitant to "upgrade" because (1) I am a creature of habit and think that if something is not broke, then I shouldn't mess with it; and (2) previous experience has taught me that often the upgrades are less than satisfactory and often cost more. That is why I don't like having to use Outlook for my mail/PDA... I still haven't found my Favorites or Sent files! Anyway, did you try the Netscape Plus? What did you think?
I used the HP Jornada [model 545 I think] for a couple of months in 2001... I am not one to always carry a PDA in my pocket. I am lucky to remember to grab my TracFone in bad weather. But I am fascinated by this whole "wireless" boom as I have been watching Bluetooth development for years now. The urge to try my own home LAN wirelessly prompted the purchase of my new iPAQ. I am usually happy with the HP equipment, I've got an HP desktop, laptop & digital camera too. But, no, I'm not an HP rep! LOL
