Re: [Eug-lug]Dan's text based computer system
Part of dan's problem is that he's using a very old computer. People with new computers can easily install linux, people with older computers have better luck using older software.Softare that was written around the time that his computer was new would likely be easier, however he would be missing out on a lot of the benefits of newwer software.

Re: [Eug-lug]Big brother is a Motor Head!
If there are any pedestrians, or cycleists out in the middle of the hot dry desert the probably need to be run over! (however... we will need a lizard detection/avoidance system!)
