How do I turn this off?
In Eudora 4.3.1, at any rate, it's Special->Settings->Really
Miscellaneous, and uncheck the box "so-called smart paste". You _may_
have to add the "Esoteric Settings" plug-in to get this option; I
can't remember.

PubMedConverter 3.3b is a text conversion engine for PubMedMakerII 3.8.
PubMedMakerII 3.8 can accept download files with revised MEDLINE format
at NLM's PubMed after early Feb 2001. The conversion errors of
PubMedConverter 3.0b or PubMedConverter 3.3 included in MedMakerII 3.8
are fixed in this version.
What's new in PubMedConverter 3.3b (Feb 23, 2001)
Conversion errors of the papers in pre-medline are fixed. Some
pre-medline papers lack Journal information or page information. These
papers are correctly converted by PubMedConverter 3.3b.

To shop for memory, go to
http://macsupport.tqn.com/compute/macsu ... /index.htm.
I shopped around for memory for a 9500, and found the best deal from
DMS (Data Memory Systems). I was able to buy a 64 MB, 5 volt DIMM
for $69.00 + $7.00 Shipping. I have been using it for the last three
weeks and it works perfectly.

Technical specs say it needs DRAM DIMMs, 5volt, 168 pin, 64-bit wide, 70ns
or faster.
EDO appears to be okay, although I think this generation of Macs doesn't
take advantage of it. Can I get away with any of the following:
PC-100?
SYNC?
ECC?
I'm pretty sure not; it has to be EDO or FPM (which tends to be even
more expensive
)Is there any reasonably-priced way to do this? Or just turn on VM and live
with it? Thx,
I had the same problem with my 9500 - in the end I picked up used
DIMMS from newsgroup adverts. One advantage of the 9500 is having 12
RAM slots, which means you can probably afford to use the 16 and 32mb
DIMMS that most people don't want to fill up their slots with, and
hence tend to be cheaper.

I have a copy. It works well, but is not (repeat NOT) file compatible
with the current Wintel version. MS has also indicated that it is a
dead product.
I also have an old copy of MicroPlanner Expert. This is great
software, if you're working in a vacuum. (Unfortunately, I work in an
MS Project environment, so I run the Wintel version of Project under
Virtual PC.) You can find more on MicroPlanner at
.

Dear List
I have an iBook SE (466 MHz model) and iMac (rev A), with Xerox P1210
printer connect to the iMac. I can't make the USB printer sharing
work (printing from iBook to the printer connected to the iMac), I
see the printer in the iBook USB printer sharing control panel but
can't choose it for unknown reason. Reinstalling software don't
change the situation.
Any ideas & comments will be very appreciated.
