However, she says that it will not speak in the vcr plus mode. Her price for it will be $219.95 plus shipping and handling. She also said that the manual will be available in an accessible format, but I forgot to ask her which one. The toll free number for "Speak to me," is: 1-800-248-9965.

From: "lisa hall" Subject: Help in installing Real Player 5.0. Hi everyone, I have been using Internet Explorer 3.02 since January 1998. I believe Real Player 2.01 came with Windows 95. Should I delete the old files from the real player directory? Or should I let the program overwrite it? There are some audio sites that I go to and I get messages requiring a new player to play this file. I also had other messages such as error 19 or something like that. Do you have any suggestion for installing it? I have already downloaded the file rp32_50.exe and have saved it under c:\download\rp32_50 directory. Look forward to your response. Please respond privately. Thanks in advance. "Love can build a bridge."

As has been stated before, almost everyone who has posted has been at least a member, or one who is about to join. I can only think of one person who has posted who does not fall into those catagories, and he is not Dan. It is a cheap shot to attribute criticism to non-members. It also looks bad for us because it impliesthat we do not welcome criticism.
