Well, I have so many folders since my HD, unlike my desktop, is orginized. You won't find more than wait....the prefs folder has over 450! Posted Image

I'm at school now, but when I get home, you shall see the true meaning of the word "cluttered." I'll get my folders in their standard position.

Ahh...Sarg, you do have Warcraft II. What's the Dungeon Master thing? I'm intrigued by it, would it be possible to e-mail it to me?

Stop me if I'm wrong, but that's a PC game, which can be run on OSX. A really kewl one where you build a fanatasy evil empire and kill the Avatar/goody good king.

Unless you've got OSX (I don't, I hate beta software, especially something like an OS), you probably wouldn't be able to do much with it. Besides, it's A) commerical and :P comes on one or more CDs.

Emailing 50+ megs would be rather hard.

I agree. And Avatara, do you use dual monitors or something?

Of course I deserved it for a few pranks I've played on you, seemingly ones nobody has noticed.
