It was possible in OS 9, but not OS X.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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

I've used autorun shareware to do that, although the program I used appears to no longer exist. It created a self-extracting .exe file.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Urgh. My brain is fried so I'm going home. But... does anyone know if it's possible in Visual Studio .NET to find unbalanced '{ }' brackets? Or is there some sort of third-party tool that can do this? Or a perl script?
Somewhere in 4124 lines of code I am missing a '}' (JavaScript is the language, but since it is a 'C-like' language I figure there's gotta be something....) The IE debugger just tell me it expects a '}' at the last line of code.

So, is $98 CDN a fair price for a 80G hard drive, and dare I try installing one myself?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Sounds okay to me. Hard drives are easy to install.

What kind of hard drive? $98CDN seems like a lot to me for a regular IDE-type internal 80 gig drive.

Sigh. The first one is not available online. And we don't have Circuit City in Canada.
And... Amazon won't ship Computer items to Canada.
