FREE Software!!

[Chuck Sinclair]

Hi Everyone,

I have finished the program to help estimate mowing times and the best part is it's FREE! for anyone to use you can get it at my software site.
www.mr-wizard.com Click the link on the left hand side and all i ask is you let me know what you think.

I think it will be a great asset to all of us in the business. Thanks for all your efforts and I like it. I got a sneak prevue of it a couple days ago. :)

Could you list the programs that will unzip this file? I have gotten an email asking what will work. I used Norton unzip to unzip it here.

Maybe it's just my computer or my connection, but I keep getting this error message when I try to download this software:

Not Found

The requested URL /staticlogo.js was not found on this server.

My pages don't referance this staticlogo.js (JAVA) where exactly are you getting this error?

Chuck,

I get this error message when clicking on the link to your mowing software, and also when I click on the Download button.

This problem might be isolated to my ISP, so I'll just try downloading later on.

Thanks.

I'm getting the same error as well, first i follow the link on the left which is http://www.mr-wizard.com/software/mowing.htm then it automatically re-directs me to this location http://Mr-Wizard.com/staticlogo.js with an error message

Chuck sent me this program a couple days ago, but I just downloaded it again and I had no problems at all downloading it.

This problem has been fixed are you guys using Netscape?

There are free zip programs on the net. Winzip is I think the most popular program. Will let you trial the program for a while. There are a bunch more, just do a search for "unzip"

I had no problem downloading; it came as a self-extracting file. If anyone really needs a compression app get WinZip at http://www.winzip.com its free to try but they ask for payment if u want to keep it.

There is a program called Aladdin Expander from FileWorld on PCWORLD downloads, http://www.pcworld.com it's FREE, and it handles a lot of file types. FAST TOO!

[greenlawncare]

using Netscape, version 4.7, getting same error as soon as I click on the mowing 1.0 link.

Looking forward to seeing it.

[greenlawncare]

fixed now, just had to reload the http://www.mr-wizard.com/software/mowing.htm page

[thelawnguy]

BTW its a nice app but for me it'll have to wait til closer to spring to try it for its full potential.

It's a nice looking program sinclac! I could see where it could use some variable input fields though in both the mowing and trimming. In the mowing catagory you could add fields for objects to mow around, size of objects, percent efficency of mowing, type of grass (is it weeds or grass?, weeds take longer to cut), are there any steep slopes, size of steep slopes and density of grass. The trimming calculator could use the same basic fields in addition to length of trimming (feet) and trimming speeds, fast, medium and slow.

Thank you, went back and tried again today and it downloaded just fine, going to give it a try and will give you some feedback then, thanks...

btw - was using netscape 4.7

I thought that it was a great program and had no problems down loading it. I do have to agree with the suggestion that Richard Martin gave.

[landscaper3]

Downloded the winzip program and that has to be the most diffecult program to operate I have no Idea how to open It up? To many next buttons with no open file to confusing!
