Grog smoke-signalled: Grog no understand. Er, ah, it's just something we use to communicate to others. Grog smoke-signalled: ** Grog looks up from pointy stick ** Stone? weapon? :confused: What, are you still groggy, Grog? Not that weapon dammit! I'm talking about the one you use to kill your prey. The one you tie on sticks. You are supposed to live in the Stone Age dammit. Use those stones. When will you guys adopt technology, for goodness sake? :rolleyes:

Hehe, it rocks my boat. :) I like the GUI except for a couple of annoying things. The one which I'm currently very annoyed with is that it re-arranges the class view and editor views when you add properties and methods to COM interfaces. Sucks really bad if you have many interfaces and classes. It keeps re-scrolling the class view. :( Bad design of the automation classes I'd say. Other than that, I have no real problems with VS.NET. I like the scriptability of VS.NET, which is way better than VC6. So, by all means, call be wannabe roxor haxor programmer. I don't mind. :-D As long as I get my monthly pay check. :rolleyes: -- Nicotine free: day 3

Firefox flew with normal controls, but used mental commands to fire weapons. CE had to "speak" the command to think it for some reason though. Neat idea was rear-firing missiles, and the tv-camera. DOTC had a mole in the USAF, who was testing a plane completely controlled by brain. Used VR-type helmet to feed way too much info to pilot's brain. Combined with stress of double-life, drove him insane. He stole the plane.
