Wither .ps? 

I have a couple files here I need to open and print. Their suffix is .ps. PostScript, no? They're spreadsheets, many pages apiece. I can look at them with a text editor, but can't make sense of them. The only app I can find that sees anything is Photoshop, which only sees the first page, as a spreadsheet image (only one layer as well).

I'm using OS X here. The Linux box is down, awaiting a cable.

Meanwhile::: Ideas?

Postscript files in Mac OS X are a pain, I don't know why Preview doesn't open them. You have to install GhostScript and that's hard...
The way I did it is I installed TeXShop, teTeX and Ghostscript following the instructions on the TeXShop home page, now I can just drop .ps files in TeXShop which reads them (though not perfectly, some distortion appears) and converts them in .pdf files!
Probably overkill if you don't use TeX... Is probably easier to ask someone to translate it to .pdf (likely with the same level of distortion) or to print them or whatever... I don't even know how to throw a .ps file to a postscript printer and see it... It must be possible...
By the way, why don't you like the Mail program that comes with Mac OS X? I read all the problems you are having with Eudora...

In Mexico, Pirated Music Outsells the Legal Kind. Mexico has become the third-largest market for copied music, after China and Russia. By Graham Gori.

"If they lowered their prices, more people would buy legal discs," said Jorge Miñon, who has been selling pirated music in Tepito for eight years and has been approached by the police only once. "I consider myself a businessman, and it is my job to give customers what they ask for."

The situation in Venezuela is similar. Note that this has nothing to do with the internet, it has to do with prices. Nevertheless, the labels have spent more time and money fighting the internet than fighting the illegal trade of unofficial CDs.

I think Montoya was at fault in the incident, but in any case these remarks show he is inmature and childish, which makes it hard for him to win the title.
