no sarcasm. I am dead serious.

learning how to use a computer on an Amiga teaches you something special. I can't put it into words, but I know it taught ME something


Apologies cecillia, I thought it was one of the grumpy brigade having another go at me... sorry... :)

At the risk of repeating myself, Everyone here needs to join NORML! or go to California and get your much needed 'script... or fly to Amsterdam... whichever....
This should give you the proper perspective on the "live vs dead" issue, and just keep doing what you've been doing.

We were in the right place at the right time, I guess :)
 


I only boot into WIndows to play (modern) games; the one niche where it can still truly be said that it destroys all competition. Even the few productivity apps I did use I've subsequently got working under Wine.


I actually play more games in linux than I did in windows, but part of that is that I switched my gaming to indie puzzler type of games.

If I still wanted to play triple A titles, I'd probably get a PS3 though.

I should have known that one, the brother-in-law in Portland Oregon is into all that hippy stuff... :)
(he's not the one who said were all "sad retards" by the way that was the one in Glasgow who said that... he's just a fat smelly bugger...)

But shouldn't it be NOFTROML ... :)
