So who is Dave Barry? (yea, I googled the name...but what one are you talking about?) -- Thanks, George "America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves." -Abraham Lincoln

I'm talking about the one who wrote the above comment. ;-) Actually, he's a widely read newspaper columnist.

If it is the Dave Barry I'm thinking of, he's a pundit with all sorts of books and quotes to his name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Barry Buying the right computer and getting it to work properly is no more complicated than building a nuclear reactor from wristwatch parts in a darkened room using only your teeth. * Source: Dave Barry in Cyber Space There used to be a show in the US called Saturday Night Live. Back in the '80s they used to parody Dave Barry by including Jack Handey quotes. "If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason." -Delivered on October 12, 1991 http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jack_Handey -- kai - www.perfectreign.com www.livebeans.com - the new NetBeans community

Yea, still on. Though, it's nothing like the original cast! The originals are classics. His (Dave Barry) quotes seem pretty good from what I've seen... -- Thanks, George "INTEL INSIDE" It's not a marketing gimmick, it's a warning label.
