Greetings!
   
   Looking at the zoomer through file manager, I see that it's possible
(at least it seems possible) to delete some of the drek that came with the
thing.  I need it as a portable brain (memory, calculator, memory, appointment
book, memory, and did I mention memory?).  I don't need AOL, in particular,
and frankly the idea of using the zoomer as an interface to an online service
seems more than kindof wonky.  Call me spoiled, but I type 90 wpm and I'm
really kind of fond of 17" or better monitors.  
   
   So...is it safe and/or advisable to delete AOL?  It's the single biggest
piece of software in B:, and deleting it would free up about 140k.   Or would
it?  That's the question....
   
  Thoughts?
