I remember he got some type of Mac laptop while he was at Greatbridge, but when they went bust, the parent company didn't know what to do with a Mac, so they let him keep it. (I didn't use a laptop at the time.) Might be the same one. Anyway, it would make an interesting reason for choosing a Mac. I can see the commerical now. :-) I actually use a laptop running XP. I got it for the Win32 port, and because I use putty/ssh, Mozilla, and Gaim 99% of the time, it doesn't matter what OS I use. I could install a unix on it, but there seems to be no need because all my unix work is done on my server via ssh. -- Bruce Momjian http://candle.pha.pa.us EnterpriseDB http://www.enterprisedb.com + If your life is a hard drive, Christ can be your backup. +
