Pav I'm home today with a cold so have lots of time on my hands for multiple posts - And sneezing And lets not forget coughing you're comic timing is impeccable! Pav

I can only assume that is a typo? Pav

@plot-paris said: is there a keyboard shortcut to open up the activity monitor? and does it start even if all other programs are frozen? that would be perfect not since the invention of wireless keyboards for the iMac, but on my MacBookPro if you toggle caption-lock and the light works, your normally still in business, if it does [cmd]+[s] usually will save a SU file (even if it's not responding), then clicking on the MenuBar apple/then ForceQuit/SU will 9/10 get you back on track. frozen programs more often only lock themselves, unless your playing with alfa, beta or early release software and some unfriendly SU rubies. iStatMenus has drop-down menu shortcuts to terminal and console and itself, but most the things you want to keep an eye on are always at the top of the screen and clicking those gives you loads more info. BTW- Apple don't call them laptops because they can get far to hot, especially the 17" ones. mine lives on a sheet of corrugated ali, and is always on and plugged in when I'm not out and about. MiniBatteryLogger is also worth a look have fun john

A really inspirational read. This paper written by Alan Kay entitled " The Real Computer Revolution Hasn't Happened Yet". Yes it is a little off topic, but what the hell. m2007007a_revolution.pdf

OK...? This would be great if processor and hd or ssd is integrated!

Just don't get it Can some tell me where is the nearest "red arrow", give directions-this is nothing like Google maps.

This might be useful later on, but for now I'll be with you and look for some members to see how it works out. 50G sure is a lot to me

@tig said: there's Northumbria [Northumberland and Durham] [chez moi] - one of England's best kept secrets - with world-heritage-sites, history, fine-coasts, forests, dramatic-moors, night-life etc etc Totally agree, my favourite part of the UK. I am infact having my stag party in Northumberland (it's not a stag in the traditional sense - lots of walking, battlefield tours and real ale pubs etc). There is of course Holy Island too, one of the most amazing places I have ever been to. You could do a lot worse than visiting my home town of York too - steeped in history, from Roman, Viking, Norman, Medieval and right up to the present day. The Minster is mightily impressive and there are other hidden gems too. You;re also only an hour away from the Yorkshire Dales and Yorkshire Moors.

Bravo! If that came in second.........first place must have been very good!

Try Canada, well before global warming hit at least.

Really, I can hardly play a racing game and try to talk in the chat at the same time, now people think its easier to text and drive! Right next to the cell phone talking-I can't even use those fancy headsets while playing the same video game! what kind of person am I?

I say just blur or photoshop those ads out. Simple, easy and cheap!

Yeah, I'll do it when I get home tonight. For the most part it seemed to work and now the songs are organized how I think is most logical for me. It was not, however, an entirely logical process to figure it out. So give me a few hours and I'll post it tonight PST. Chris

Would these books be sufficient? (I couldn't find a US version) http://www.amazon.com/Illustrated-Building-Pocket-Book-Second/dp/0750680156/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263501863&sr=8-5 http://www.amazon.com/Architects-Pocket-Third-Charlotte-Baden-Powell/dp/0750686170/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1263501863&sr=8-3 Surprising that there weren't any reviews of the books.

Ward, I see them in FF OK. (FF 3.5.7 on a Mac) Chris

Thanks to everyone who responded. The head of our association's insurance company finally responded to my query and they will insure a mass concrete insulated cavity wall.
