Third option. Everything she does is stupid in his eyes. He’s with her because she makes him feel smart. So, he doesn’t have an opinion on Natural Remedies per se, he just needs to maintain power in their relationship. (But Natural Remedies, puhleeese!!!!)

Has anyone ever heard of a library? You can buy a year pass for like $12.50 or something ridiculously cheap. THEN, you can “rent” as many books as you’d like, as often or as little as your time and interest requires. It’s a great investment. :)

At our office we used to use html document so that they rendered same on everyone’s machine. This provided two benefits
- we could maintain formatting in documents
- our scm allowed easier merging of changes

PDF = portable document format

“PDF is a popular way of formatting documents so they can be viewed and printed on multiple platforms without changing”

The only problem with PDF is Adobe ; \ Checkout Foxit to open your pdfs in 300ms for free.

There’s a problem, ASCII sucks for multilingual text. I think plain text in UTF-8 encoding is a good solution.

I recently got a new mac. I easily moved all of my data and applications over via firewire. When I booted the new machine, it was as though I was still using the old machine. It was creepy.

Not long after, I got Leopard, and I installed that. Once again, all of my customized OS settings were preserved. Again, it was just like my old setup, only with the new added Leopard features (like spaces, etc).

I have felt the upgrade pain with Windows countless times. With Linux, it’s been ridiculous. I would rather just use my old version, thank you. Upgrading to new machines/OS with Apple machines was so clean, so seamless, that I was actually skeptical that I hadn’t done it right.

I saw your work setup after the upgrade. I gets even better. Some customizations, like dual monitors, actually work better after the upgrade! Amazing!

I’ve heard that the Mac OS X upgrade is just as easy, but I have no personal experience. Any SE readers done that? How does it rate?
