I don't know about all the questions, but I think I can answer a couple:
Internet is capitalized (although I consistently spell it lower case!)
Online is one word (although the spell checker certainly allows two)
And finally it's DVD (use periods only when talking about B.V.D.s <g>)
I'm sure others have equally insightful answers <g>

Dear List readers,
Is "internet" (Internet) capitalized? Why or why not? We're writing a Know
Your Private Schools booklet for the League of Women Voters. Some schools
capitalized it and some schools didn't; we'd like to be consistent. I think
I saw that the New York Times capitalized it.
As long as we are on that subject, how should I spell "on line", is there a
hyphen, one or two words?
I'm also writing a resume. I'm trying to have a section devoted to
technological training. Is it dvd, DVD or D.V.D. and what exactly does that
stand for? On a resume, would you say "scanner" or OS -whatever? What is
the acronym for scanner.
What is the difference between the two sides of a DVD?
Thank you!
Polly Lynn (I'm not at a university. I'm staying at home with two babies.)
