Netscape has a Calendar function built into the full version. It is used
at the college where I work -- and it's free. You can save your calendar
on a PC disk and take it wherever you go, and work on it on a Mac or PC.
Any computer that has Netscape installed can have the Calendar function
downloaded and installed.
