Hi Tim,
The smallest item was my notes on trying to figure out how to use
VoiceOver. Well, they all were. Though some were copy and paste from
Internet sites. I typed it into the document. Looked up the keyboard
command for "Save As". Saved it. Attached it to an email. It would not
send from any gmail, or my AOL account. Spent an hour one morning trying
to figure it out with another tech savy friend. The error codes didn't
help us, as it was saved \n hidden way as a zip file, and not visibly as a
file gmail or AOL will not send.
