@chrisdaida Yes, Katy is now getting offers for millions of cats of cat food from Nigeria...
@dsilverman There are probably people who want to go back a la Terminator and stop me from having done that. ;)
@jamestenniswood Wish it were that easy. On the Internet, no one knows who you really are...
@dsilverman I remember evangelizing VMWare to you, telling you it would change your life. Little did I realize...
@Mr486 Thank you! Be sure to copy the PDF version from the CD to your PC so you can search it...
@Rafe Magnet + hammer + shredder = privacy
@dsilverman I had no idea, but thanks.

Got the student license key I needed for testing. Thanks to all who offered help.
@NKnow Oh you're right, but the conventional wisdom within the RDF is that Snow Leopard and Win7 are equivalent upgrades
@chrisdaida I think I've got things covered here, thanks. Twitter success story!
@holgr Actually, in this case it's closer to a billion. (rimshot)
