Wonder how well it will handle some of the 'normal' events in our household that the current main system has had to deal with. Very Happy

Such as coffee and pepsi spills, baby upchucking on the keyboard, cigerette ashes and burns, spilled pancake syrup and butter, leaking tube of super-glue, spilled gallon of gasoline and many others that I won't even mention. Embarassed

Confirmation, if any were needed, that these MS geeks and designers live on a different planet - no, make that galaxy - than we mere mortals.

on it and jiggle it around.

is it me but if these tables ever come into the home what would stop
billy no mates directing one of the internal on your living space.as we know he likes to monitor everything else under the MS umbrella.

Foss! The mods are going to think you're going to BADger them with that avatar. Any puppy avatars will make the mods think that you're me!

(JUST KIDDING!)

Anyways.. Since I can't talk about no "genital region" here, I'll just say that men might have a little "extra" fun with this new concept.
