Now we're on it, and Zack wants us to tell him about our problems, I have a
few things for him... First, when I drink Ice-tea, I get a funny feeling in
my mouth. I can wash it away with water, but then the taste is gone as well,
besides, that would be too healthy. Help?
Also, my old 386 doesn't run plasma, and I'm afraid my 500 mhz PIII laptop
with Intel 815 graphics accelerator (decelerator?) won't run it happily
either. Should I ask NVIDIA to develop an USB (1.1) graphics card, or can
you put Aaron so to shame he'll remove most of plasma and bring back
KDesktop, only allowing black&white backgrounds?
Zack, you have a bad effect on other people. First, you make us waste time
laughing due to your funny mails. Second, I get into a mood where I waste
even more time wasting other people's time writing silly (and entirely
useless, I should not send this but I will) emails.
gosh, the invention of the Plasma Interface Guideline acronym seems to haven
cost me my sanity, at least for some time...
