WooHoo, my dollar is now worth 93 US cents.  America is great bargain right now.  I know of people that regularly take shopping trips to LA and easily pay for the flight in the savings.

Is this an anomaly?  What's up with America?  For the first time in history our average wages are almost half again what America's are.  I used to dream about moving to America and earning some big cash, now I couldn't afford the pay cut....

It's not nice to rub our pain in our faces.  The lack of sanity from our leaders the last 16 years has not helped us in these crisis times.

Last I checked MorphOS was over 200
USD per machine :(

Yes, but you can run it on cheap hardware that is orders of magnitude faster than the new hardware that is offered for the other comparable OS choice (AROS is not up to par yet and don't try to compare MorphOS to Windows, MacOSX, or Linux).
