Of the languages that are supported, the translation is -- at best -- a joke.Yes, and during that time, you could have: a) Gone to CompUSA and bought some translation software. b) Installed Windows and Office XP. c) E-mailed some friends in fluid Spanish/German/Italian. It might give you kinda-semi-sorta an idea of what the other person was trying to say. However, if you try to use it to translate something that you have written, it doesn't come anywhere remotely close to producing something that you would ever want anyone to see. Trust me. I only ever used it once or twice, and then I got laughed out of the building. -- Brad Knowles, <[email protected]> "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.
