[ale] Can you point me in a good direction

[Walter Sams]

This description is more in line with what I was looking for when I put the 
kde desktop up.  I think an upgrade would benificial, the fax number is the 
most noticable item which doesnt "stick " where I put it as well-- I suppose 
we cannot have everything. 

Thank you
Walter Sams
