BTW: DreamCast is not *powered* on Windows CE, but *compatible* with Windows
CE. (according to the sticker).
AFAIK, when developers chose to use the Windows CE API etc. on the Dreamcast,
they were bundling the actual OS with their software (without the consumer noticing, just loaded into RAM).
Anyway, the Dreamcast has been my favorite console ever since I used it
regularly. I really liked Grandia II. The only bad things are the controller (I
reckon they must have been good if you didn't buy extremely cheap ones from a
Chinese side-street) and the "GD-ROM", because they enhanced disk-space by
reducing the amount of redundant data for error correction. Heck, there were few
games that didn't fit on a normal CD, plus I can't play even slightly scratched
GD-ROMs anymore (at least in combination with my slightly broken read-laser). Oh
yeah, and the modem wasn't that great, because it didn't seem to support to
disable waiting for dialtone, a necessity in the house I live in.
However, I also had a Genesis (~same as MegaDrive, but from America), and it
really made me like SEGA much more than any competitor, infact I was absolutely
shocked about SONY entering the console market, because SONY sucks and is for
walkmans. Luckily nobody near me had a PlayStation at that time, and it took a
while until I heard of it.
I have no tattoos or piercings, though I am a guy with long hair, which is still considered a little bit outside of professional norms.
I wear my hair long too, and I don't feel that way. However, I probably live somewhere not exactly near to you (I live near Berlin, Germany), plus I never really have touched anything very professional, because I still go to school (although this is very likely to change very soon, because I sort of... failed).
Anyway, yesterday, I watched a play (Another Antigone by A. R. Gurney, very recommendable), and sort of like in Sophocles' ancient tragedy, there was one person who was often referred to as a "classisist" (like the King in Sophocles' Antigone, if I recall correctly).
This person wore long hair too, and he was meant to be a conservative teacher. However, this was in an extremely small theater (you could look at the outside of the building and wouldn't suspect a theater in some kilometers of radius), so it could be that he is just an "amateur" (please suggest better terms) "stereotypical" artist.
I have noticed my increased ability to solve problems I had during the day that were postponed while lying in bed, but my primary theory had to do with warmth that speeds up chemical reactions...
Chaosradio. It's in German though. Live streams available; topics not always interesting; GMT +1:00 with daylight saving time every last wednesday of the month @ 10pm to 1am; broadcasted by Fritz (Bluemoon); presented to you by the CCC (Chaos Computer Club).
You know Bill G8s, that relatively secure, yet sucking, software making guy, he himself donkey dicks even; I caught him donating money to charity in church today. Yes, church on Monday... some people really should get off of their lazy asses to work... and control us open-sorcerors with his usual big corporation, Apple, again...
I've got a 56k capable modem that can't connect any faster than ~28.8k because of my rotten telephone interface down in the basement...
But anyway, at the moment I'm enjoying 100Mbps at the university (I'm ditching sports classes at my school to go to the university and do something productive (hacking the universe))
Sure, but home schooling is not allowed in every country, and 18,000 students seems to be a university, and no proper high-school, and you can't get a university's degree at home etc.

Nah, it's a lightningrod! (Sorry, but it was just so tempting)
No, WINE Beta ...
But when you breathe out, you could try to breathe toward a plant's leaves (but don't push yourself too hard, or severe death may result).

This is just the brute-force way of making decisions, in case of being in (albeit the slightest of all) doubt.

Although it does not describe the microscopic issues here, it probably still could have helped you
This reminds me of Snow Crash by Neil Stephenson ...
I just noticed, that the story clearly states:
"Strand said it will take billions of dollars (euros) to clean up."

Don't forget: TV-Turnoff week and even more important: Lights-turnoff week!
