Al: Thanks for the insight. I know my puter is not a Mac, but that s about all I know about it.
 
 As far as messing with the java, I ve tried putting my cup on the left, right and above the keyboard. Had no idea that coffee affected my computer but am aware that the powdered sugar falling off the donuts is a bear to get out of the keyboard...earl

 Sorry you are having so many problems.
 
 Don t worry about the bopping in and out on the chat.  
 
 Many of us can tell if someone just wants to lurk, is new to the chat or may be having problems like trying to use a mac.  Believe me, you have offended no one in the chat.
 
 We make our welcomes to anyone who comes on and we are aware of the problems that people trying to get into the chat can have.  Most of us have had some sort of problem ourselves.
 
 For instance, tonight, I gave up on the chat because my posts were posting very slowly.  I do not generally have that problem.  But my pc was also running very slow on other sites all night.  
 
 Sorry that you have to switch your java around so much.[]
 
 Earl, maybe if you post what you are using for a browser, others using the same thing might be able to give you some tips.
 
 For instance, I use Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.   To find out, click on the Help menu and About Internet Explorer.  That will give you the verison if you are using this browser.
 
 I am also using Windows XP,  you may be using Windows 95 or 98.  Hope this will give you some help because we would like to see you there.

Just a little reminder that we also chat on Friday nights.
 
 Hope you can make it.

SteelersFanCampers,
 
 Try tonight between 8 & 9 est. By then, most everyone has dined on the Message Board and are ready to use up that new energy! []

 The IRC chat works with any machine that you can get an IRC client for, including macs & Unix-based machines.  There are many IRC clients, so if you don t like one, you can try another.
 
 Since moving to ChatNet, we have had close to zero problems.

Just to be a party pooper.
 Who said there would be a new chat room?
 Right now there are no immediate plans for a new one.
 
 I don t want anyone to be mislead.
 If we find a chat software that will allow more people in (MAC s)
 and also still be colorful and fun, we would gladly try it out.
 
 The problem is we have not found one that frankly works any better.

 OKAY, all you Computer Gurus--get out there and help search for a chatroom that might be as good as this one but allow Macs in, too!![]

I have not been able to get into the chat room. Is there somethigng I should check on? I am using a PC with Netscape 7.1. I get a screen with yellow outlines but it never completes the download...just says- sending to popup times and the hour glass icon hangs on...forever. I have java enabled.
 Any suggestions?

I might be wrong, but, it might be an IE only chat room, not sure ...
