        \_ I would, but after your last speed tip my computer can't see any of
           my files, so I think it should slow down and maybe it will be able
           to see them.

11/27   CalMail has been down for a few days (hardware failure and database
        corruption -- sounds like fun!) and is starting to come back online.
        Looks like they're planning to outsource all campus mail to either
        Google Apps or Microsoft 365 as part of Operational Excellence.

4/28    Win 3.1 was more widely adopted than Win 3.0.  Win XP (5.1) was more
        widely adopted than Win 2k (5.0).  Now it looks like Win 7 (6.1) is
        going to be more widely adopted than Vista (6.0).  Is this a trend on
        Microsoft x.0 versions being bad?
        \_ duh.
        \_ "more widely adopted" ... well... what are you basing these numbers

12/2    IE usage down but still kicking the majority ass. Chrome is also
        rising up high, almost at the Safari level. Firefox isn't
        doing badly either. Sorry Opera, you had your chance.
        http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2009/12/november-2009-browser-stats-ie8-passes-ie7.ars
        \_ As long  as Opera is the only browser you can use on your Wii,
           I see a fine long life ahead of it.
