I agree that the Thinkpads are the best (for me) looking machines out there. Even newer models feel good, but the all-time best model was the Thinkpad 600E. It's clunky by new standards, but it feels really good to type on it. The Macbooks just don't have the same keyboard feel of the IBMs and for $1,200.00+, I expect more.
Dells have always seemed like cheap plastic with poor presentation of the machine inside.

Bab5 is a true epic and far above a lot of SciFi series. Yes, you had to go through crap eye-candy/bloat like Star Wars to get to B5, but B5 epitomizes the God vs. Evil saga a whole lot better. I'll give these guys a chance, but I'll split the cost of the DVD with my buddie, Heath.

PS: Have never had the patience for a full sit-down to a single SW episode. Booooring! Albeit, Triumpth the Comic Dog whipped some fans' asses on Late Night with Conan O'Brien.
See. I skipped through all the "relevance" BS above and hit upon real informative stuff. I didn't care for your banter so I came to where I could learn and contribute something. That said...
Thanks for the reminder about slipstreaming. As for a suggestion, when you run Software Update on a Mac, choose "Download to Desktop". Then you can update other machines with those patches, albeit one at a time. Also, Mac OS update asks for the root/admin pswd with each patch. WU does that but once every session I think. Over....
