    Today is the first day at my new job and guess what! They bought me a Dual 2.8GHz Zeon PC w/ HT, with 1GB of RAM, and a SCSI HDD! Friggin' nice. And, I got a 19" LCD to boot with a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse! Normally, this wouldn't be as cool, except the job I just came from was cheapskate city! And, now I actually have a monitor that's easy on the eyes. Ok, I'm done. :) Jeremy Falcon

    Wow! I went to the first day of my new job yesterday, and they showed me a WinNT workstation that I get to use to enter sales of motorcycle parts.:~ I've felt much better since I gave up hope.

              Why bother? In about 3 weeks we'll have 80,000+ of the real thing arriving for a weekend. Gets awfully noisy around here...:~ I've felt much better since I gave up hope.

                            I'll second that! That's what I have at home too, but since I'm the new guy at work I'll have to wait before I start making requests. :) Jeremy Falcon
