dels available. It scans photos up to a resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi, which can be enhanced to 9600 x 9600 dots per inch. To go alongside this great input device, will be my prized output device. The Epson Stylus Photo 2000P Inkjet Printer prints using a 6 color cartridge, at a resolution of 1440 x 720 dpi in black/white and color ($299).

Although cheap digital cameras are becoming more popular, and webcams are now sold for under $40, the Traveler is both convenient in that it acts as both, and is reasonably priced.

The school provided Microsoft Office 2000 would provide most of the programs I would need (Word, Internet Explorer etc).

One of the most important being AOL Instant Messenger, along with the full featured AOL. Another title I use quite frequently now is the Mp3 player Sonique. I find its interface much more use-friendly than the popular Winamp. In the situation of a possible network breakdown, I would have FreeLane (Ex...
