Also, check how Google has you set up.

To change the country on your Google Account:

Visit the Google Accounts homepage and sign in to your account.
Click the Edit link next to 'Email addresses.' You'll then have the option to edit the information in the 'Country' field.

Oh, no, wait. I tried reloading the page again. The first few times I tried that, it didn't work, but now it did.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hil's computer likes German cookies - pass it on....

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I really want more desk space. What's the easiest way to let my Mac & PC share one set of peripherals?
