Feature or bug, Tree?????


BTW, to those who are unhappy, a trip through the salvation army, the local
pawn shop, dumpsters behind the computer store, garage sales, etc., is
almost certain to turn up a 286/386 machine with color vga card....  TR-Log
runs like gang busters on these sort of 'legacy' machines... Old fellas, who
used to be kids when dos first came out, will have an old set of dos
3/4/5/6/7 discs floating around that you can have just for hauling it
away...  Even going upscale and paying for one that's up and running in the
display window should be in the low $200 range... Shoot, I've got more than
that paddles and microphones I no longer use...

Stop whining, get a dedicated dos machine for contesting....  and for gawds
sake - get a haircut!
