Well, I decided to go to PC Cyber this afternoon but when I got there, 
the PC I wanted was sold out.  Guess it's popular.  I put one on order 
and it should be in next week.  In the meantime, I got some goodies 
including a new monitor.  So I have some things to play with until my 
computer gets in.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.

The secret to great software:  Fail early & often.

Eliminate software piracy:  use only FLOSS.
