Subject: where can i find software on trial for web page design?
I have just recieved a EeePC 701 and i would like to learn how to use it properly can you help me i am a student and i am currently learning to use Dream Weaver is there a similar application on this os that i can use to build web pages or can you tell me of a site that i can goto to get trials of this type of application recently i accessed a library on the net where there were living programmes that one could use and they would change after a period can you direct me or advise me which programme to use on office.org. I tried using office.writer/web but there is an untitled page behind the page that i was building and the tools did not provide all the features that i would need to complete the page. I can not afford xp so i would like to try to use what i have without having to spend anymore also i have a Nokia N73 and one of it's features is web n walk can i use this as a modem to access the net? I am not familiar with the means of using thunderbird mail or firefox for that matter as i am on t-mobile who would be my isp one of the questions when i tried to setup an email account with firefox or thunderbird was who is the isp would this be t-mobile or the company i am currently surfing the net from? i live in a hostel and they provide me with free access at the moment and i am not sure if i am allowed to make an email address on their system because i am not sure if this will be blocked when i leave here

There are free alternatives to DreamWeaver. You'll have to decide just how comparable these are. They are Amaya and NVU (not being developed anymore). You can find free alternatives for all programs you are used to working with. Just search google, or give us a list and we can tell you the alternatives. I'm not sure I understand what your hesitation about internet is? Firefox is just a browser, like Internet Explorer. So I don't understand why creating an email account using Firefox is an issue? When you create an email account in Thunderbird, you'll have to fill in all the details such as the POP server and the SMTP server. You fill in the details of whatever email account you are using. Also, you can just use one of the web email accounts such as Gmail (http://gmail.com). This gives you a 5GB+ free storage. And you will be able to access your email no matter what ISP you use. All you'll need is an internet connection and a browser. Cheers!
