Anyone watch Private Practice last night?
I watched a few minutes of it with the intent to watch Dirty Sexy Money afterwards, but it hit me like 100mgs of Demerol. Did anything happen after Addison and Joe Hackett decided that they shouldn't make out anymore ?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Private Practice: in the scene where Violet was naked and Cooper was getting naked, the body double for Violet was TOTALLY A DUDE! I mean, it *had* to be, or Amy B. has a very masculine looking body.

wanted to know if any of you have any info on the laptop itself?
It is a bit of an appliance, it runs Linux (a modified Fedora Core OS) so no iTunes, and additional software is limited to Linux. There's lots of software for Linux, but I doubt the OLPC is designed to add much. The specs aren't really sufficient to run a full featured Linux desktop in any event. OTOH, no serious threats from malware.
It's a cool piece of hardware though, I'd buy one just to have an ultra efficient laptop for travel and Internet access around the house. I don't think it would be very good if it was your sole computer.

Gud, even if you are 8-years-old? I mean, I guess I'm trying to figure out if I should get one after donating one or just donate both? And if I get one, it would be okay enough to give to a kid in my life?

As long as the 8 year old isn't expecting to run Pet Vet, Math Blaster, or whatnot on it I think it would be just great.
