- I tell you what, this Pal Centro was a fraction of the price of my Nokia, but it's so much nicer to use. Plus I get the PalmOS nostalgia!
- on Jaiku

- on Jaiku
- Compiling AbiWord from MacPorts. Pkgsrc on my MacBook Pro is having some issues today for some reason.

- on Jaiku

- on Jaiku
- The Maximise button in Windows might have made sense in 1990, but not in 2008 with resolutions at 1680x1050!
