Wow. A Big Plastic Thing (tm) | (Link)

Um...
Haha.
Wir sind gelaufen. In German we combine the perfect past (if that's what it is) with both sein and haben. I don't know the rule, but I have the feeling that sein is combined with verbs of motion. But you also combine it with other stuff, it seems. Oh wait, a certain temporary condition something can be in?
Ich bin gelaufen, gefahren, gegangen, verreist. Es ist vereist. Es ist geschlossen.
Ich habe gelesen, gegessen, gerlpst.
Tricky. Aber: Ich habe gehabt und ich bin gewesen. I dunno what the rules are. I have the feeling the thing about motion is correct though. Movement, I mean.
Otherwise though, the whole thing was correct! Hee hee.
"Wir haben den langen Pfad um Greenlake gelaufen."
Oh, and I missed the whole verbs-of-motion-and-change-of-state-take-sein rule! *smacks forehead* And I scored in the 99th percentile on the national German exam, too. Oh well.

And bleiben takes sein, for whatever reason. :)
Haha! We just did that to make it more complicated and piss foreigners off.

You've got 9? I've got 6 (scanner, printer, digital camera, flash reader, mouse, mp3 player) and I thought that was insane.

Both my monitors are USB hubs, which show up to the operating system as "USB devices". So I only have 7 interesting USB devices: - mouse
- printer
- cd burner
- scanner
- camera
- mp3 player
- wireless base station (USB only to configure)

Ahh....ok then, you're not as cool as I thought :-)
Hey Brad, slightly OT, but going from that picture and looking at your computers, they're on a KVM switch, right? Does it work well? What brand? I'm thinking of picking one up.
Sorry dude, it's 12:25am. What I am thinking? I see two monitors, but I was only clued into "no KVM switch there!" when I saw the second keyboard. Stupid me. Is there a second mouse hiding somewhere there too?

x2vnc
no switch
x2vnc is definitely cool. I've seen a four monitor setup of that. talk about requiring a huge mouse pad.
