Heh, you guys...I was just offering advice, not aware that it's a mandatory
thing for Hotmail slaves to have ads in their signatures. I'm just spoiled
by Gmail :) and in return I use next to nothing of my storage space!

I hate seeing you guys poking fun at people, I always feel like Linux should
be a shelter for anyone who wants it (it's just a shot away) and that (even
good-natured) ribbing should be kept to a minimum. I guess it's not the most
fun opinion to have, but it's the best one for the community at large.
