While I've never seen a Dvorak keyboard, what advantages do they have to the ASCII artist? About the domain names, .com and .org seem to be your only choices.... if you ever plan to sell something on your domain name for profit, go with .com, but if you aren't, go with .org. There's really a fine line there, but I'd go with .com because it leaves room for the future :-) -- Ryan Tucker rtucker@worf.infonet.net Des Moines, Iowa rtucker@ins.infonet.net http://www.infonet.net/showcase/rtucker -=- Uhhh, huh huh, you said .sig.
