That is why i just bought quanta gold from thekompany.com (they have 3.3
as a linuxppc binary) and supports open from ftp.  but, it won't really
run without qt3 installed, so i will wait for my YDL 2.3 disks to use
it.

yeah, MacOS X is sooo slooow on my tibook 400.  its ridiculous.  apple
should at least let us turn off half of the hoggy-drop shadow crap.
