Re: Is ticalc.org down?
I guess that's why on your web hosting page you claim " 5 pop accounts
and unlimited aliasing"
Let's see:
1. Richard
2. Megan
3. Lamer
That's only three. hehehe. Plenty of room for your company to grow
lamer.
Oops - I was just about to send this when I realized, why is the
president of a "big-time" software company as yourself doing subscribed
to a Texas Instruments Mailing List.
Also - why is the president of a "big-time" software company as yourself
doing trying to set up a calculator site at all.
You suck.
