I got a copy of PGP for Windows to check it out- its available via ftp from
oak.oakland.edu in the msdos area under winpgp10.zip, or soemthing like
that.
I need to add memory to be able to run the thing- my computer's
getting pretty maxed out with all the stuff Ihave on it- but meanwhile, I
checked it out- The interface was nice, but the direction sucked- you still
have to be *very* computer savvy to be able to run the thing. I swear,
software should be run by a group of non-tech people in order to see if the
directions and help files are clear and complete- in this case, I didn't
feel that the help files were all that helpful.. I'm going to try to add
osme more memory pretty soon here, and see if that helps- but like I said,
the thing wasn't exactly intuitive- for the complexity of it, I would
probably do better using a more straightforward DOS version.....
Anyway- its a start though- so..we shall see.
Take care,
-- Julie
