Hiya
I've been forced back to the darkside here at my fancy new job. This computer is damn fast: 3.2, 1mb fsb, gig ram, etc etc, but it sure ain't my powerbook.
I'm hoping those of you who are xp users can point me in the right direction for stuff like font managers, productivity enhancers, that kind of stuff.
Thanks

Font manager ... Adobe Type Manager (super cheap deals on eBay too these days).
Productivity Enhancers ... ? For what exactly ?

I have a cat morea. Two in fact. Siamese, one chocolate point, one seal point. And a dog; he's shepard/collie cross, about 75pounds, very well behaved - I can let him to pee and he won't wander away (ever). I also have a 4 year old girl. And a 1.5 year old girl/devil. So I'm kinda full up on getting another cat ;)
The job rocks unc. Hard to believe, but it does. The people are just amazing. The work is *extremely* light, and I'm feeling pretty lucky, thank you very much!

UnkCarbunk: I can feel the dark side's pull. It's so powerful, so, so, so fast. Damn you microsoft! Damn you right to hell!
I must be strong and remember to stay with the white, the good, the apple.

at least you can test your own stuff now, once you get home.
