Walt's comments and observations about eBooks and :CueCats are right on
target. I put a :CueCat on our computer at home. We played with it for a
couple of days. It now sits behind the computer because neither my son nor
I have taken the time to disconnect it. I was fascinated with it at first
but now must say it is worthless. It is old technology looking for a
problem to solve that doesn't exist.
