And (as if) any further excuses were needed to come to our fair city, Oktoberfest is 30th Sep - 2nd Oct, just a couple miles from the Convention Center. The bar is open until 0130.
The notebooks featured on Michael's site are actually Clevo (http://www.clevo.com.tw/) notebooks. They are sold in the US under the brand name Sager, available from (among others) pctorque.com. I have the 17" model (tricked out w/ P4 3.2, 1gig RAM, ATI 9600 128MB, DVD burner etc etc) and it *is* bloody quick, but not that quick (about 20 sec to boot XP to usable state). I got it to run 3D CAD/CAM, which it does, like a dream. The only downside of this is it also runs Q3A amazingly well too, so I never actually get any work done;).

just read the M$ License agreement for windows and, blow me down, it turns out I don't own that either! Thank you EULA!
(not exactly the same point, I know, but...)
"...participate in the manufacture..."
"...any other act that makes available..."
By your argument, wouldn't that make sex illegal too?
Damn.
