Didn't sound like that to me. It was just coincidental that i had posted a bit
of
news about 40% (?) of existing computers in the the list of companies 
sampled, still run win95 and have no plans to downgrade them to win98, 2k, 
mp, or xp. Derek said 3 or 4 people, it's more than that, i believe.

If people use a win32lib that i cannot use, i simply won't use their lib. Same 
goes for javascript, java, activex, vb, vbs, etc.

Sounds like it was indeed a mistake you made to email me about Eu on 
Parrot? Think i am not doing anything? I am doing those things i want to do, 
things that no one else is interested in. Like learning other computer 
languages to make that http proxy i still don't have and still need.
