Such a gentleman.<BR/><BR/>And James - you're so right. I've never had a single emotion towards a computer that wasn't somehow born of frustration.

Is that brown? It's difficult to say, my eyes are watering, wanting to wander around the fringes of the photo. She's quite the contrast to the parade of candy-colored machines that you've shown off before. There's an air of "stern chaperone at the debutante's ball" about her, standing by in her sensible tweed amid a whirl of taffeta.
