reddragdivaThat's quite enough slash, thank you. Thank you.
The latest in click-through licensing: when they don't just not send you a copy of the license in question, they actually can't.
Thunderbird is the coolest geek toy. I can't believe some of you whiny virus-spreading Microsoft users still try to justify your grossly unsanitary computing habits. I've been having hours of fun sorting and categorising the 4000+ mails that were on Thingy and the 800+ that were on Velvet. And teaching it what is and isn't spam. Today I saw it eat its first piece of spam and send it to Heck. I was so proud!
I am in serious need of a decent computer chair. And am appalled at the flimsy crap sold by PC World and Office World. I am in need of leads. Second hand office furniture stores accessible by Tube would be of tremendous interest.

Date: 2003-08-30 11:55 pm (UTC)Recently, I installed a copy [Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1] on my Windows 2000 machine and am similarly pleased at its performance. Bookmark importing and wrangling is kinda sweet, too.Rendering-speed is better that Internet Exploiter and its Just-Say-'fsck-off' attitude to popups and cookies has me grinning like a loon. I am teh win!!1!one!

Date: 2003-08-31 04:54 am (UTC)But yes - putting Mozilla, OpenOffice and the Gimp on a Windows box can produce wonderfully happy users when you just change the OS under them :-)
I wonder how usable Lindows actually is if you don't purchase support and easy downloads ...

Date: 2003-09-04 01:29 pm (UTC)Mine, fully loaded, cost me CDN$1100 with taxes, delivery and everything. It's worth the money for the comfort, and the unconditional 12-year guarantee on everything.

Date: 2003-09-04 03:23 pm (UTC)I like the Aeron when I'm sitting up, but it gooses me when I lean back. The Mirra didn't do that. It's a glorious ass-comforter. :-)
