Yes, and will stay put to p.b.i., as I am still able to use e-mail and 
newsgroups... I kicked all web browsers from my laptop's harddisk, and 
as I lost my Windows XP installation disk years ago and my main Linux 
computer is also not able to connect to the Internet anymore (unless I 
re-install Debian aptosid with the Ethernet cable plugged in, which 
would take more than two hours), I'm not tempted to plunge again into 
the WWW swamp! If I occasionally need to download some raytracing tools 
or information important to my Khyberspace, POVEarth and POVSolar 
projects, I still can use a friend's Internet connection.

The Linux computer (an AMD Opteron hexacore with 16 GB RAM and 2 TB 
harddisk) is now mostly devoted to POV-Ray (what else?).

See you on my screen!
