I've been collecting used and broken PCs for a while. I've finally gotten around to salvaging all the good parts and putting togethor two boxes. The nicer of which I'm gonna turn into a media box for the living room, the other I don't know what to do with :) But it'd be a shame to waste it! Its a 100mhz pentium with 16MB of ram and a 3GB hard drive. I know I could turn it into a router but I've already got a perfectly fine one. Any ideas on how to put this box to use?

This thread is titled:
Quote:

Tip: Styles can be applied quickly to selected text.


just for curiousity, why this title- when neither of the posts here have anything even remotely to do with it......?

I can see that the original poster was looking for a tip as to what to do with his old machine-but he is not posting a tip here as "TIP:" would indicate, and how in the world this anything has to do with selecting text eludes me.

Perhaps the author just had a trully profound apropos.......

Took the liberty of editing the subject line back to something useful. As to why this happens, no idea. I've just finished editing half a dozen of threads with the same title. You'll see that the line "Tip: Styles can be applied quickly to selected text." comes from directly above the text body window in the Post a message or Post a reply screens...
