9. AutoCAD won't be available for the Mac
http://www.blog.cadnauseam.com/2009/05/29/why-autocad-for-mac-is-a-bad-idea/

All the Windows-centric code would have to be re-written. Autodesk is either unwilling... or unable... to work with a cleaner OS... of course, when Microsoft goes too far with backward compatibility obstruction (remember Win32s, if nothing else), Autodesk might find a hidden cache of money... :D

7. depends if they're using the YIM app, or another client.
I have a 3rd party application that lets me monitor AIM, YIM, and Facebook IM, all in one window. Big improvement, but there is some incompatibility with features like audibles (which I really dislike anyway), and one friend claims when I send him a message, it crashes his AIM on PC.

Maybe you should just type 'em out. *fart noise*

*whoopee whistle*

8. I think some of them are pretty cool ...I remember when they first
came out we would have audible wars. That was fun. I haven't messed with it in several years. Thanks. *squee*
