A site where businesses could rent quality users for their software/websites etc. :-) I just need something in the middle, I can find expert users that do what they are told and dont break the software, and then I can find complete idiots that can't even work out how to open the software when its the only icon on the desktop, its on the startbar and the quicklaunch bar, and in the program launcher thing on the task bar, and they still can't open it. I need to be able to rent an idiot who can get into the software but can't quite remember how to do tasks so that they click and select the wrong thing so they can break it and i can fix it again rather than doing it the way i do it which works fine. There just doesnt seem to be a happy medium any more. Idiots have got worse and the people in the know have got smarter. D
Re: BUFFY - SPOILERS , DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN SKY 1 LAST NIGHT
*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT* Well what about last night? Buffy no more? Well I'm pretty sure she will be back, my reasoning - they played the normal end of show credits/ theme tune, if they had of killed the character off, there would of been a special ending. Mind you, when I explained this theory to the wife she used the phrase ``clutching at straws'' Well, how about the argument that SMG has singed up for two more series? My bet is that she got sucked through the portal into the dark side and will get spat back out in 9 months time or whenever the next series is. Probably in a pretty bad mood, angel will be all happy again and Sunnydale will be back to normal, or as normal as it gets. Who knows?

If the Linux version is a Beta / Alpha type deal it seems fair enough they want people to test it with known versions of its dependant apps, no? umm .. for a windows install where Activestate Perl seems to be the standard then yes, its fair enough. For a *nix tool it MUST work with a standard Perl install or it is of zero use (to me) .. I do not have any intention of installing Activestate Perl on my Linux box or using it in a production enviroment. my two cents It looks like a potentially good product for the windows environment, providing integration into a widely used IDE is probably a safe bet, however unless you have the very latest version of windoze 98, me etc, and the 'windows installed(TM)' installed and up to date, you can't install it. I gave up after ie5.5 decided i needed to pay for a service pack. Only time will tell. /My two cents David = Artificial Intelligence is no match for human stupitity! __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
