...Faustian contract and sold their souls to the devil. Sure, I have met people upon whom I wish the proletarian revolution, but on the other end of the materialist spectrum sit social-justice advocates who attack recruiting seniors with a vengeance that makes the Intifada look like a bunch of PBH counselors. Hearing some of the charges waged against recruiting seniors makes me grateful for the fire codes which have prevented those social justice advocates from holding candlelight vigils in front of their dorm rooms...

This was a moment I'd waited for. I've got a bunch of computers at home, but until now, none was networked because, frankly, it's just too damned hard. Who wants to drill holes, pull cable and figure out how to route data between a bunch of machines in different rooms? Not me. Yet there's a growing need for a simple solution.
