Well alright, that is very cool! I'm on my PDA right now and that looks great, I made it my desktop photo (on my PDA). So is there a little face in there now?

My desktop is a picture of my lover (I wish)...

EDIT: My photo hosting site went bye bye... also, this is downsized to 800 x 600 so it fits better here.

AmiPro 3, nice! Is that the computer with the Dual Xeons? I used to use that software way back when and loved it's interface. I still have an old copy of SmartSuite on a Zip disk somewhere.

If you have the Using AmiPro 3 book from Que, you'll find my father's name somewhere in the credits. He worked in tech support for Lotus back in the early 90s.

Yup, running AmiPro (for WIN3.1) on my dual Zeon workstation under WIN2K. Runs pretty well... quite fast, actually. :) I don't have the Que book (just the original Lotus book).

I don't like learning new software (to say the least), and AmiPro has a lot of capabilities. It's never stood in the way of my doing what I need to do. And I am familiar with Word (I am forced to use it sometimes)... what an clunky, ugly, and bloated piece of software. I feel like I'm often fighting with it, just to stop it from doing things I don't want it to do. Its default state seems to be "user interference."

Call me a softie, but I shall ignore you :lol: But the background pic I'm running now is a simple feature of my girlfriend and I's place cards from her sister's wedding last year. Not exactly proper focus, but I think it's a rather...well, cute...pic :oops:

Wimps! I took my TP away with us this weekend and left the mouse at home. It was really fun and nice using that Trackpoint, although funny watching DH trying to maneuver it. He gave up. :lol:

I think these people too used to working on non-trackpoint-ed laptops (acer, toshiba) and need to get used to these lengendary red sticks. I also hope they do know what these device can do.
