Re: Yahoo, DSL, Mac and me
It seems I do need to clarify myself quite a lot because I made a gross error; I mixed machines in the same paragraph. Let me try to get it right this time.
SBC supports Mac; Yahoo does not.
I could not use the Yahoo personal webpage at Geocities using W98se. I think the error message said I needed XP or ME. It also said they were sorry but the area was not available for Macintosh users. I did not persue it as I am not going to upgrade to a new MS Operating Sytstem. I disabled Yahoo.
Imho, there are a dozen ways to give users home page space without requiring a *special* Operating System. ISPs do it every day.
I am sorry for the confusion. |

United State | It's just another ploy to squeeze more money out of the unsuspecting. If I can't use my ftp software to download my webpage, I don't want the space -- free or otherwise. |
