Us either. We've got a TV, but all thats hooked up to it is the PS2. I love when the local cable company calls to try and sell us. "Im sorry, we dont watch TV" isnt on their little script. Gets them flubbered every time!
Exactly. I go and buy Photoshop, drop the CD in, and install it. But Im supposed to download Gimp, get this toolset and that toolset, compile it, and then copy it around?

Launches a piloted, privately-funded spaceship, capable of carrying 3 people to 100 kilometers
Spaceship one can do that, no? Or can it only carry one person? Thought it had room for 3.

Got any links to this information on oil field peaks, or where this information can be found?
The same place I store my 200 foot coil of rope, and 15 foot staff!
