  • HaHa! I just informed our help desk and they are scurrying to "update" our 70 windoze machines. Yet another disruption in our workflow. Of course, I can keep working like nothing is happening. I love my Mac!

  • Quote: Originally posted by ShawnJ Quotas have been illegal since Bakke... That's about 30 years as of today! If quota systems were still the norm 10 years ago, that's news to me. What's puzzling is that you base your opposition to affirmative…

  • Quote: Originally posted by ShawnJ That is not affirmative action! That is an illegal quota system! I would sue their asses off. Back then (1993), quotas were the norm. I looked into sueing. 2 lawyers told me there was less than a 30% c…

  • Powermax seems kind of expensive, at least for used computers. I mean $489 for a G3/350, 192mb Ram, 12gb HD, CD-ROM and zip. Hey, anybody here want to buy my B&W G3? Powerlogix G4 450, 704mb Ram, 6gb HD, 30gb HD, Radeon 7000, Rage 128, …

  • I have also been called a racist. Why? 1. Because I'm from the South. When I moved to Boston 8 years ago I attended Suffolk University (for 2 weeks). In one of my classes (some history class) the teacher picked me out of the crowd (after he…

  • Audi's are it. I've owned 3 (1980 4000, 1990 100, 1991 100s). My wife and I still talk fondly about the 2 100's that we had. If I had the money, I would buy another Audi in a minute. But, I stuck driving some American POS
