As long as I've been "with the program" since '94, am I the ONLY one
that reads the opening page or the realease notes or the "What's New In
xxx" or or or ...

I used to teach Windows at CompUSA to beginners and I always preached to
click - left and right - on everything in sight and even on blank spots.
Like why climb the mountain - because it's there. ;-)

Let's take that big orange Firefox button, good example. It wasn't there
previously but it is now, so why not click on it to find out what it
does? It wouldn't be there if there was something ominous or detrimental
sooo .. click ont it!! Guarantee you if you click on it your hard drive
won't jump out the case and chase the dog. :-D

And a BTW to Asa .. Thanks for getting involved here, very much
appreciated as always.
