Thanks B-o-B (Mr chewbaka). Perhaps like you, for me it's a coping mechanism. Here is a link that interests me, and if you look at the bottom of the page I bet same for the web-page poster, too. http://fysnet.net/rombios.htm The current rural neighborhood crisis has a new neighbor letting his pit bull chase deer while also shooting his ~25 shot automatic when another new neighbor is in his deer stand bow hunting. The bow hunter also has a 50 caliber bear rifle ready if they enter his sight. Of course they have made it a wildlife hunter's feedlot and I did smell a skunk today. I guess the pit bull owner angered his other neighbor who used to have a cougar. But when I called the sheriff's office I was informed the cougar had died, However, he still has something that howls like wolves. Your basic looney bin up here, with a "No Trespassing" sigh across the road. It will sound like Afghanistan in a week, with orange soldiers. I simply love shiny wires, and colorful computer screens, and great computer books. I have a new old book; "Programming the Parallel Port," by Dhananjay V. Gadre. And learned about the rom bios table that included occupied port address at 0x40 + offset. I never knew this, and have a lot of DOS books, so I found the web link and had a great day.
