    I was going to wait till I'd set things up but: This weekend will be the start of a new Managed C++ competition. Before I hear the groans from the .NET naysayers lemme say there will be golf balls as prizes. Visual C++ .NET golf balls. Yes - now I've got your attention. Anyway - it was either a MC++ comp or a VB.NET comp (...excuse me while I wipe off the sudden rain of tomatoes and rotten eggs thrown at me). Details announced this weekend. cheers, Chris Maunder

      Aww Chris, does it have to me MC++? What about us poor developers without VS.NET? Simon I need your clothes, your boots, and your copy of VS.NET. Sonork ID 100.10024 I'm totally amazing at maths puzzles. Just try me. As long as the puzzle doesn't involve adding numbers I can usually get it.

            But if I buy it will it give me those six-pack abs and those large breasts? :wtf: (Sorry too many infomercials!) Dave Huff Igor would you give me a hand with the bags? Certainly - you take the blonde and I'll take the one in the turban!

                Yeah but you can only use drivers that are certified .NET safe. I didn't realise that golf was a developer sport. Seems to have too much walking around :-D Michael :-) Errata 1: p. 154, section 'Defusing'. For 'red wire' read 'blue wire'.

                                      Thanks Michael. I never thought they'd call the ball used to play golf, a golf ball. That's too obvious. Nish :-)
