Yeah, that used to be the rule, two computers, presumed to be work and home or desktop and laptop. But things got more stringent since. Though I still believe in two computers rule, like I believe in fair use of media. Doesn't affect the actual legality.

Generally? Most of the major players ignore small-scale piracy. It's when you start running the entire company on 400 machines using two copies of Office that MS gets pissed.

(Exaggerated for emphasis)

If anyone has a used web-schooling capable laptop for cheap (Preferrably a PowerPC Mac, but a PII+ PC will work), I'm starting to look for something for Andi's (WindSparrow's) online classes.

I might be selling my 600 MHz G3 iBook soon.

Also, I still have two boxes of stuff that I need to ship to you. I've not forgotten. They are all sealed and ready to go, I just need to get my ass down to the post office.

Heh. I know the feeling. No problem ND.

Hmmmm, ok. Thanks, all.

I gave away 6 gmail invites over the last couple of days, and I just noticed, I've been topped back up to 50 again.

I feel worried, like I'm not going to be able to avoid the gmail ultimately, and that by the time it becomes ubiquitous, I will be a dinosaur. Stuck in the tar pits.

However, I do not feel worried enough to succumb, and therefore, when they pull the trigger and you all discover that unlimited hard drive space is not just metaphorically lethal, I will survive.

Unfortunately, I will be the only survivor, the lone holdout, and I will sadly email myself from all my different and very small email accounts, until I sink, sighing, into the earth's core.

Heh.

You know, sometimes I think my worries are not like other people's worries. But I'm not sure.

I have 6 invites. - perhaps, because I have never given one away - it will always remain 6. all my gmail invites belong to me.

I also still have 6. I've given away at least 10 or so.
