A subset of the Mac vs. IBM wars is the current browser war. Netscape, maker of Navigator and Communicator, is competing heavily with Microsoft, maker of Internet Explorer (as well as a host of other monopolizing applications and operating systems). The debate rages on as loyalists from both factions argue about each browser's capabilities. "We have more stable patches!" the Netscapers yell. "Oh yeah?" the Microsofters call back, "well, we have integration with the OS!" (to which the Netscapers scoff in contempt).

While I won't take any sides on this issue, what I WILL tell you is that I'll give you instructions on setting up email and newsgroups with Netscape Communicator version 4.0 and up. Call it bias; I call it using the superior product.

Configuring your email through Netscape is easy, and it will allow you to use Communicator's handy graphical interface in mailing people. First, go to the Edit menu and select Preferences (it should be on the very bottom). Now, find the Mail and Groups menu choice on the left of the preferences window; double click on Mail and Groups in case the thread is closed (you'll see a "+" sign if it's closed. Just click on it to open the sub-menus).

Now, click on Identity if it isn't already highlighted. You'll see a selection of fields on the right. Fill in your name and email address (remember, gta100z@prism.gatech.edu!) If you have a signature file, choose it at the bottom. If not, don't worry about it.

Advance to the Mail Server menu by clicking on Mail Server in the sub-menus of Mail and Groups. In the mail server name field on the left, type in your GT number (i.e. gta001z). In the Outgoing SMTP field, type in "smtp.prism.gatech.edu". And, in the Incoming POP3 field, type in "pop.prism.gatech.edu".

Advance to the Groups Server sub-menu on the left. In the News Server field, type in "news.gatech.edu".

Now, click OK on the bottom of the preferences window. You're done! You can now use Netscape's mail and newsreader like you would elm and tin (of course, Netscape's nicer!). Familiarize yourself with Netscape's workings; try sending an email to yourself and receiving it. Subscribe to git.test and post a test message. Fun, eh? I thought so.

IBM made their top 5 technology predictions for the next few years, and Intelligent Traffic Systems made the list. Not because of my influence I assume, but because we see a market there as traffic and congestion become more of an influence on worker productivity. Gotta get the workers to the plant on time.
