NO, I'M NOT STUPID :-)
I JUST SEE ALL THIS TALK ON THE BOARD ABOUT DOWNLOADING FILES, USING BLU, AND
OTHER STUFF LIKE THAT. MY QUESTION IS:
I DON'T YET HAVE A MODEM. WHEN I DO GET ONE, HOW DO I GO ABOUT DOWNLOADING?
WHAT FILES DO I NEED? WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 4 AND 6 BIT UPLOADING????
WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THE DOWNLOADED FILE TO MAKE IT "RUNNABLE"? ANY AND ALL
HELP IS APPRECIATED. DO NOT ASSUME I KNOW ANYTHING (ABOUT MODEMS AND STUFF -
I KNOW WHAT A COMPUTER IS :-) TIA.
