Gavin has had a go and had some difficulties, I agree that it is not a very useful tool...but I get a lot of fun out of using it daily to talk to Brian sip:odont@ekiga,net in Upper Hutt NZ.</div><div>I will try to contact Gerry whenever I can.</div><div>Likewise Eldy seems to be difficult for some although it is designed for the ELDERLY so perhaps not very useful for our experts!!</div><div>Thanks Alex for getting me hooked to the internet, and nice to meet Simon and hear how the OU is moving into Linux.</div><div>I bookmarked the two topics mentioned and will have a look at them. Do find time for Ekiga Fay, it would be nice to talk to you sometime!</div><div>Frank<br><br>--- On <b>Thu, 27/5/10, Fay Zee <i><sussex@eglug.org.uk></i></b>
