I don't know if you guyz n gurlz know this - i only just found out about it

to enlarge most web-pages text, press and hold 'ctrl' and scroll down on mouse wheel.

saved me having to go into options to change font size for every different website, excellent for us KC sufferers as we have 'good days and bad days' enjoy

Yes, this works well in IE6 and earlier, and in Opera, Netscape and of course Firefox.

IE7 has chosen to implement it a different way... which is why I switched to using firefox ( http://www.getfirefox.com ).

well i'm glad you are using firefox and didn't know that ie7 doesn't have this function, another plus for mozilla :D

Or, for the seriously challenged there is always the consumate simplicity of the Mac.

I am always lost in admiration for all you clever people who can manage with windows.

i didnt come here to hear pc bashing :D

i use a pc at home - a mac at work (still at home but....)

they both have their pluses and minuses.
yes the mac's os gui is better, but upgrading a pc is soooooooo much easier. i could go on for hours, but..................................


Merry Christmas
