===================
next time i reboot this laptop, i'll stick an ubuntu CD in and see if it
takes as long to get the info. i guess if it does take as long, then we
can blame the hardware.

"Since I entered politics, I have chiefly had men's views
confided to me privately. Some of the biggest men in the
United States, in the Field of commerce and manufacture,
are afraid of something. They know that there is a power
somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so
interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they better
not speak above their breath when they speak in
condemnation of it."
-- Woodrow Wilson, The New Freedom (1913)
