Oh, I only use Windows at work, and only when I have to there.
So apart of the corp Dell laptop and the humongous dock and 2 screens for it, I have a MacBook and a Mac Mini with another display at the desk. And now an iMac that I simply took from my boss' desk - he quit a week ago so it was a case of take it or lose it.
On the next few days, I will try to reduce that Dell to be an XP virtual machine in Ubuntu and all the Macs, and then as install + reinstall random linuxes in it.
But that will be secondary in the next few days.

We all need to work with those that we really don't like but have to. Sigh.

Barkeep - where's the barkeep!

A round of Pumpkin Ale for everyone.

I tried the recipe - a very rich soothing brew. (watch the belt line though)

I'll take 2. My belt line is sedentary.

I wonder whether his mits with the pornographic screensaver ever sorted out his 'problem'?

I laugh every time I think of that thread. Poor guy, I'm not laughing at him, but his thread title was very funny! Perhaps the most amusing "tech problem" we've had?

I must admit I have been generating a lot of laughs regarding that thread.

The way he phrased the question he seems to be upset that it is not the porn he wanted.
