If you use MS Media player, what you're watching is already being watched. Probably NOT reporting to the government, probably to corporations, who have the real power anyway. ;-) [link\|http://www.wired.com/news/privacy/0,1848,50567,00.html\|http://www.wired.co...0567,00.html]

The soothing effect of inserting various pointed objects can.. almost.. atone for the daily time-waste, the inconvenient crash when that important e-mail won't download, the incomprehensible 'blame someone Else' error messages, the smarmy paper clip and.. and... that horrible baby-talk label, My Computer !! Each one deserves an er embedded object. And if enough Have Faith and do the daily pin duty? Oh Ye of little Faith!
Post #31,444 by nking 3/9/02 12:13:29 AM Reply	Billy doll I had an idea for one, and it had a connection to the computer that could detect a system crash or BSOD. The Billy doll will laugh a geeky laugh, with a snort or two, then you use a small hammer to wack him on the head and it makes the computer do a warm boot. My only problems are finding a company to make the thing, and coming up with the cash to promote it. :) "Will code Visual BASIC for cash."
