and tested 4.7x. |

client.
Well worth trying as an
alternative to (and improvement on?) Internet Explorer and Netscape. |

programs. Word
Processing, Spreadsheets, Database, Graphics etc. MS Office functionality and
compatability. From Sun Systems. But be warned - this
is about a 70Mb file. But well worth the trouble. Freeware |

Reader. Freeware |

Eric Shackle's eBook!). Freeware |

storing, displaying and emailing Windows screens. This should have been
built into
Windows 9x/XP - if Bill had only thought of it. Freeware |

system. Actually designed for the specialist bookshop, but
it also
works very nicely for the private library (or even just your collection of
