Two years ago, I had to re-do the IP addresses after ten phone calls to the wireless companies in the hotels. This past year- things were better; maybe next year- ti will all be fine. I had real troubles at teh Dead Sea. They said they put me in a room with wireless; it never worked. SO I had to sit in the lobby formatting in Quark and sending the articles back to the US.....Funny what you see in the lobby at midnight at Yam Hamelach (mostly drunk Israelis on chofesh who are stupid enough to go to the Yam Hamelach in June!)...!!!--Still love my MAC and wouldn't trade it for the world. Also- when in doubt, just ask friends who have PCs to find the info for you!--"LOVE-MY-MAC-SUE"....Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12970189468066980451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35250603.post-18167909274389468182007-10-09T18:52:00.000+02:002007-10-09T18:52:00.000+02:00Seattle, I worked in Holon.
