          I've had KVM switches that use the scroll lock key to switch between computers.

            Me too. Have you also experienced that the sensitivity of mouse movements went up after using this? I'm still having one of those and it irritates me.

                        From the link ... C:\Una\Lesbian Porn>DIR . . . then the 22,000 files in that directory scroll past so fast I can't see their names. However, if I apply the pipe function at the command prompt like this: C:\Una\Lesbian Porn>DIR | more ...

                                  I've noticed that indians often use the word doubt instead of question. I suppose that's because some of the indian languages (might be a cultural thing) doesn't distinguish between the two.
