Anyone know how to turn on the speaker phone feature on an LG VX6100?

(My boss is looking for a cell w/ a speaker phone. I have one, but have never used this feature and Googling for the manual online is giving me no love.)

[eta: Nevermind, found it]

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I just caught myself planning to stay two hours late on a Friday afternoon in order to buy Tiger the minute it's out, even though I don't have a machine to install it on (as my Mac belongs to work.)

I then caught myself thinking I could just buy a new Mac to go with it.

So who was it that figured out how to put crack in an OS, anyway?

Amych, I've been thinking along the exact same lines all week. Maybe I'll stop by Tekserve on my way home and spend thousands of dollars I don't have.

See if you can win one at your local apple store!

Crack, it's what's for breakfast.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Maybe I'll stop by Tekserve

Be sure to stop and say "Hi" to me.

Standing in line already?

Actually, I've got the opposite problem of Jess and amych. I have to go into work tomorrow, so I can't upgrade my computer at home until tomorrow afternoon, at the earliest.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Amych, I want it, too, but I'd have to get more RAM for Fredlet first, and I've got windows installing as we speak, so no $$$. (Err, house windows, that is. The sort that don't come with a million bugs and actually improve your quality of life.)

However, if I manage even two 40 hour weeks before this contract is up, I may splurge on a Mini for the house.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mine hasn't shipped yet. On the dual upside -- Panther is still new territory for me, and Tiger's only costing $10.77. I can wait.

The evil genius that is Apple. If you're going to sped $129 on an OS, why not just throw in the extra bucks and get a Mini along with it?
