If I only had a brain...

The husband finds the lap desk very comfortable, but he uses it in a rocker with arms. Did you take a gander at the tambour table?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yes, I did. Also very nice, but slightly too small.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Huh. Advanced uses for inkjet technology: [link]

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I've checked out Minis at several online places, including Amazon. None seem to offer upgrades, such as Bluetooth and Airport, that must be installed by Apple or an Apple reseller or service place.

OK, here's a question that my boss just asked me....

Right now we have 32 static IP addresses with a DSL connection to the internet. Let's say we switch to a much-cheaper cable modem that would give us four IP addresses. We could use NAT so we could still connect all our computers to the internet, but there's one problem: when we log into our client's system via VPN, each of us needs to have a different IP address for it to work. So is it possible to have a router (or, say, a linux box acting as a router) using NAT set up so that, say, three of our computers would always have different IP addresses outside of our network?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Tom, you can map three specific static addresses on your network to three of the cable IPs through NAT, leaving the fourth for everyone else. I don't think you could do it dynamically, at least not with the router I have here. Other routers may have the software to do it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
