I witnessed a crime
Freddy Woo writes, "A group of us once staggered home so insensible with drink that we failed to notice someone being killed and buried in a shallow grave not more than 50 yards away. A crime unsolved to this day."
Have you witnessed a crime and done bugger all about it? Or are you a have-a-go hero?
Whatever. Tell us about it...

My Hate Affair
With MACs started in about 1990. I was trying to get one to run TCP/IP when it smugly told me:
"You don't need to know how to do that!"
So I threw it across the room and refused to have anything to do with them from then on. I will *not* be patronised by a fucking machine!
And MACs can run XP? Yeah,right. Within 30 minutes of unpacking the MAC I ran Boot Camp Assistant and turned it into a fucking paperweight. Had to completely reinstall the OS. So now I run XP as a virtual system. Virtualisation rocks.
Still, I have to admit that with Leopard it's almost a proper OS. I got a console where I can run command line shit, the multimedia stuff is cool and once I loaded Firefox instead of that fucking abortion, Safari, then the Net is very usable.
Still poking around in the guts of the thing but I doubt it'll ever replace my PCs.
Cheers
