ok, ok, I wrote it quickly, and didn't actually test whether or not it would compile. Apparently I'm not as sick of a programmer as I thought, otherwise I would have watched for the (stupid) mistakes I made. Oh well. Heh, turn int ver into float ver and you'll get a better report. Sorry, I was just trying to be geeky/funny.

Ok... so with all the stereotypes or "alleged" there-of, I'm kinda skidish about what ppl think a Da-FrEQ would look like... HA.

P.S. Females with brains rule. Never did like the ditzy tarts that always represent "trouble".. fun.. but trouble. Not that you brains aren't fun... see thats just why I don't talk. I listen. Absorb it all. Memory like an elephant... err well better but... crap. nm

I just think that kids, not teenagers, but kids, should be getting their feet wet with "real" boxes at age 5.

After you learn how to speak, write, spell, read, and annoy, then you should start using da putr.
And I don't mean the GUIfied M$ either. Altho, now a days, thats prolly whats happening. They start out at age 5 playin micky mou$e on a M$ box and BAM!!! screwed for life. hmmmm

I've still got comadors, trash80s, tandys, atariis... lol. and they all still work. most are active units..
sad i know. ohwell.
