The WiFi works and it's fast and unrestricted. Walking to the restaurant, I ran into Keith Moe, who was also checking out Fresh Choice for our meeting. The seating isn't perfect -- a booth will hold four of us, but for more people, we'll want to move tables. Outlets are scarce, but the battery of my new X41 Thinkpad with SSD will probably last through the entire meeting. It wasn't too crowded, and will probably have fewer people on a Tuesday night. 248 Great Mall Dr Milpitas, CA 95035-8026 (408) 934-9090 It's buffet style, so they still serve me too much food. There is a senior discount, and a discount coupon on the website (must be downloaded less than 10 days before you plan to eat there) I also looked for Ku Day Ta, and found an empty store, so I think the recession took them.

Firefox to me seems all oddity so I use Seamonkey, but I think Firefox is probably the direction things are going. Hi Craig, We don't really keep minutes of the BayWarp meetings, so I thought I'd drop you a note about what we said. It started with a problem using Firefox and PMMail together. Let's say you had a web page with a mailto: link. Firefox is supposed to look up what to do in a file called "mimeTypes.rdf". That works, but if you tell Firefox to use PMMail.exe, it doesn't work. PMMail launches and gives an error message. It turns out that in mimeTypes.rdf, you don't want to use PMMail, but rather set useSystemDefault="true". Now mimeTypes.rdf is an XML file, and editing it by hand wasn't what the Firefox developers had in mind. Instead, they planned for you to go to Options, and open the Applications Tab. Unfortunately, the applications tab is blank on recent OS/2 Firefox 3.5x builds. We contacted the Firefox developers, and there is a fix that's been posted in Netlabs incomming. That fix, that replaces XUL.dll, allows Firefox to display all the mime types in mimeTypes.rdf. Unfortunately, even with the fix, use system default is not an option. So for now, PMMail users may have to edit mimeTypes.rdf by hand to get the mailto: link to work. Our Seamonkey user was out sick, so I can't really comment about the usefulness of this information to Seamonkey users. best regards, Neil -- Neil Waldhauer neil at blondeguy.com www.blondeguy.com Expert consulting for OS/2 Warp and eComStation
