I would like to be able to listen to some whenever I work on something on my computer but I am not sure if I would be able to or not.
Thank you for your time.

Just doesn't use the same dialup manager. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,041 UGN Elite Poster | | UGN Elite Poster Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,041 | THe short answer is Yes, you can do everything in Unix that you can do in windows. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,136 UGN Elite Poster | | UGN Elite Poster Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 1,136 | Keep in mind though, that you'll only be able to use the Unix portion of the internet. The internet is divided into sections for each OS, so right now you can access the Windows Internet, but not the Unix Internet. This is why most of us have multiple machines, or set our machines to dual boot - so we can access both Internets. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 Community Owner | | Community Owner Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 7,203 Likes: 11 | Originally posted by pergesu:
