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

People have said good things about their laptops.

The last IBM PC we had around here was an XT. It had a 10 MB hard drive.

If you just want something to use as a controller for the PC sampler software then M-Audio makes some nice keyboard controllers. If not Roland, Kurzweil, or Korg all make nice keyboards across a pretty broad price spectrum.

I do not have positive things to say about my old Thinkpad. But it is dead and gone and sold on ebay.

Betsy, I like Casio's keyboards [link] a lot. I've owned several. This is the one I have currently [link] , which comes with a SmartMedia reader. They all offer several play modes.

Shit. Amazon.com is driving me batshit. I just want to do some damn xmas shopping from the comfort of my office!

Is this one of those 1st world concerns again?

LN, I won't mock you, if you don't mock my pain that Word insists on repaginating the entire fucking 350 page document every time I apply a bulleted list.

Every time.

Do you know how long it takes Word to repaginate a 350 page document?

Dana,

any way you can split that document into 3 or more parts? You need to use master documents for a document of that size.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I know, but no, and master documents was buggy as fuck last time I used it, and it's only going to be my problem for a limited time, so I don't honestly care that much.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
