Post this on a couple of dobro websites, like RESO NATION & dobro hangout. I would love to get some dobro tab of some cajun tunes, especially JOLIE BLON (the cajun national anthem?)

Hi Cliff
My wife has Aria banjo. The banjo instructor at the Blue Ridge Pickin Parlor, Bill Knopf, told her it was one of the better Japanese banjos. Your welcome to come by & try it. I live in Van Nuys.

Will alternative Quick Time work with IPOD

I have Quicktime installed only because I have an IPOD. If I replaced it with the alternative Quicktime could I still do all the IPOD stuff?

I don't understand XP's architecture, but I would have though that the main difference between having this problem under ME & XP would be that when Netscape runs out of resources in XP only Netscape would crash, as opposed to locking up the entire machine. Perhaps under XP you wouldn't run out o...

Bob - The reason I think Netscape has a memory leak is that the longer I use it, the lower my systems resources go. I eventually end up having to reboot because my pc locks up. What I try to do is check my resources every now & then & if see they have gone down around 15% - 25% At this point...

Netscape problem

I am using Netscape 7.1 & it seems to have a memory leak. Anyone else experiencing this? Anyone found a fix for it?
I looked on the Netscape website for browser patches, but couldn't find any. Apparently they don't post patches on their website. Thanks for any help.

IMHO, BIAB is not very good notation software. A couple of problems are that it can't show repeated sections and it can't show more then one key signature. If song changes keys it will show the correct chords, but not the new key signature.

Panhandle Rag on dobro - I believe Jerry Douglas recorded it in A, Stacy Phillips in E , Alison Brown in D & Shot Jackson in E. My gut feel is that, in bluegrass D is probably the most common key, but certainly not the only one. If you learned it in D, it would be a piece of cake to play it in E...

Mark, I'm certain the double right click is my problem. I'm probably doing it without being aware. I didn't know that a double right click would affect the left click. Maybe this explains why I have trouble playing banjo type rolls :-)
