Have your cell phone show them to the munchies. The doorbell button can be in charge of coats. <g> Charles Tutt (TM)

<< I wouldn't pay $200 for that. I wouldn't even pay $50 for it! >> Boy, you're a cheap son of a gun aren't you? And, I was basically joking, but you have shown that you don't have much of an imagination. My joke was an example of something that as I stated, could happen with the PC that you "can't even imagine". By the way, if something like that WERE available for $50 I can pretty much guarantee that you'd be the only PC owner that didn't have that application. <g>

TimeToBuy, "Show the guests to the nearest beverage station? I can't even be kind enough to greet them myself and serve them? Why should I show up to the party?" Go easy on the guy, maybe the virtual butler is a cry for help. Its blatently obvious now, that he's riding a moonbeam of some sort. Next he'll be using analogies based on Star Trek episodes... Microsoft's 2-year licensing "bargains" are an attempt to stall a lengthening product upgrade-cycle. In their defense, it is about all they can do until other revenue streams take up the slack.
