So if someone has a computer that is too old to run Mavericks, he's SOL with regards to security issues?

Springing ahead permanently will eventually have the same result as staying back permanently - after people and companies adjust. Of the two choices, I'd rather have 12:00 in the middle of the day or night. (I'm also a morning person who wants the golf courses open after work) If you wake up in the daylight, you are not saving any daylight.

Yesterday my household switched from Quest & Earthlink DSL to a Comcast package for phone and internet. In the process, the Cable Guy never asked for IE. Testing, the Windows computers used Firefox, and the Mac used Safari. The Cable Guy did not know about newsgroup servers, but I later found the name of the Comcast newsgroup server address. He didn't have the full voice mail phone number, and was unable to set the TV remote to talk with my TV. He also didn't do anything about changing our outgoing e-mail to use the Comcast name and password (someone in my household needed to use a provided Comcast e-mail address, which we won't use for anything else). One of my newsgroups was not to be found, although I just noticed that Giganews says they have it. I'll have to play with that.
