    I wanted to construct a Windows based moat around the site, but that idea got voted down...now look at us.

    Just like hippies, you let one in the next thing you know you have drum circles everywhere and a jam music festival taking over your town.
    Where I'm from we only have one bit of advice for new comers: "If you hear banjos, turn and run".

    You want humor, read some good, old-fashioned sarcasm. It could be funny.

    Well, I think I now have seen it all... "serious" and "chit chat" in the same sentence... and next to each other too. Will wonders never cease?

    Why do you need a VM?

    Can it not load on the Mac's native browser?
    Everything that has a computer in will fail. Everything in your life, from a watch to a car to, you know, a radio, to an iPhone, it will fail if it has a computer in it. They should kill the people who made those things.- 'Woz'
