Have you made any progress?

Dayl... Thanks, yes the "welcome" is in the inbox preview window. I don't find the scene particularly objectionable, but it takes time to load (I'm still on dial up) time that used to be used to check my ISP inbox and to notify me if there are any messages to download. I understand you to say remove the preview window, shut TB down and restart it in that mode. You mention drag the windwo size down (to zero), but I'd assume to chose no preview window would also work...we could test lots of things and I don't suggest that be done, thanks for the tip.

This happened to be to an organization and I only know one of the people personally. The address for the one that didn't go was given to me and now I know it was given to me incorrectly. An O instead of an A in the name. I wanted to know for sure if the other two were sent, and now I know they were. Thanks to both of you for the replies. Sue

Thanks, cyn, sciencechick, and lucky...well, *deep sigh* we (at least temporarily) turned it down, because it appeared that between the last time we saw it and today, the back had been significantly weakened and you could move it around : ( : ( I want that sofa so much I was almost willing to say let's just get it and have it repaired but it still wasn't at an amazing *enough* price to feel comfortable with it. I do wonder if maybe we should reconsider, given your story, lucky...the base, with the 'blue steel' parts (flash Zoolander face : )) is in fine condition, and we saw that the wood parts of the base are made with very fine-grained oak, solid...you just don't see that these days. It's only the movable back that gave us pause. So with that in mind, may I ask, how much does reupholstering cost, lucky, just a general ballpark figure or range? The labor, not the fabric...This sofa is 101" wide... And CYN, CYN -- did you preorder Dizzy Heights? : ) A couple of days ago I watched "Lights of New York", filmed by Liam...it's haunting. Neil does the interface between techno and acoustic so brilliantly. But of course. Hope you're doing well in general...
