Well, depending on the content, and ones desire to view it, there are varying 
anmounts of effort one can go to, to satisfy your curiosity ... <BG>

Would have love to see them live, Cat Stevens, Simon & Garfunkel Cher, Sandra, 
Abba, just to name a few <sigh> still good music tho ... <grin>

Well, I liked the look of the lateset gimp, unfortunately, I did not have time 
to play with it, not my machine, am trying to get my step-daugther to use it, 
mostly to give her some exposure to open source software, as she has just cost 
us a small fortune in tution fees for graphic design, did very well, but has 
yet to get a job ...
