How-to on installing OS X on an Intel machine: [link]
No, I haven't tried it yet, but the Windows box hasn't been earning its keep lately.
You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

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

Ann, that's a ferret.
Thanks, Eddie. I'll pass the info on to Hubs.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I am a PC idiot, but...
In word I seem to have accidently turned on a setting in which I am seeing paragraph symbols, dots for spaces and arrows for tabs.
I have looked under the views menu and can't find a setting for this.
Help!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Sophia, there should be a button with a paragraph mark on it somewhere on your toolbars at the top of the application. That toggles whether you see those marks.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Yes, and if that toolbar is not visible, go to Tools - Options - View.
eta: then look at "Nonprinting characters."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Anyone know anything about BitTorrent? I've dl'd a couple, uhm, documentaries, with no problem, but for the last one, although it says it's finished, I only have a folder with lots of little files in it - there's no completed product. Isn't it supposed to knit all those together automatically? What do I do?
Also, why is it that when I go to the website, there are lots of seeders and leechers listed, but when I go to dl, there are no peers in my list? How come I'm not connecting to the seeders that are clearly there? I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, and this is frustrating.

Do the little files have suffixes like r01 and/or rar? If so, they are compressed RAR files and you need a utility like winrar to decompress and piece them all together. [link]

Yes, they do, Jon. I'll try that, thanks. I'm still baffled as to why it didn't do that automatically, though.
Also, great tag.

Zenkitty, IME, rar files don't automatically stitch themselves together.
