On the subject of 'computer literacy' and language vs. icons I have one comment; As any of you that have used the Apple Macintosh should have realised, language exists in major part to talk about things that you *can't* point at. If you dont have command of a language then you are going to be handicaped into using what you can point at in some way. This is a problem I see again and again in computer circles. What is it that most of us have missed out on that we don't get this point? Hugh
