I agree.. and I hope there never comes a stopping point. Well, we won't ever come to that.. but yea, I love the ever growing corn-maze of PCs and computers... theres so many avenues and systems to play with in 2020. We sure have it pretty good... I think linux is the future, but we'll see where things continue to go.

:P
Regardless, it sure is fun on the frontlines.
