    back when SGI was still kicking they got hundreds of hours of work out of my father because I got to play arcade games and didn't push him to go home. I even meet some cool guys and helped them test the N64. Fun for me and the company benefited in the long run.

    Similar to the one in XP, and I really hope it's not the rumor sites running wild as its' a very good and usable feature. Remember this is not the "not invented here" apple of the early 90's, if they spy a good feature they will copy it as they should. Two can play at MS's game...

    Venture Capitalists greedy bastards dumped millions into the company, I'm sure Fanning got some of it.

After he left she gave away the rest of the shirts.
