    Who doesn't! I just had to toss about 10 years of Amazing   
   Computing for the Amiga to make room for the new Linux magazines & books   
   Amiga was my principal hobby interest until I took up with anime and   
   manga. Spent a lot of time this week trying to get wireless networking   
   working then working to get a VCR functioning when a tape jammed and   
   cables had to be taken loose and others fell loose. Back to simpler   
   cable setup since the 27 inch NTSC is going to the Goodwill in the   
   next 6 months unless I get sicker or something.   
      
    Meantime, Away damned cables, away!
