Hello,

I've found some interesting papers related to computer science.

http://www.cs.arizona.edu/research/reports.html

In fact this is from an university research center. Depending on the topic you're interested you'll find some good papers there.

Hope you'll enjoy it.

Regards, Neitsa.

Gosh. I didn't even realize they had computers back in 1989. No wait, I bought my first MAC back in 1986 and paid $10,000 for my second one in 1988. Imagine $900.00 for a 20Mg (yes I said megabyte) HD. Never though I'd be able to fill it. Now I have two 200 Gig HDs running a RAID on just one of my machines. Some things have changed for the better. But I still keep finding interesting reading and other things to fill them up with. Time to add some more. Thanks.

Hmm. Was that triassic, jurassic, or cretaceous? I can never remember.

Between an amiga and a mac, he chose mac. And thus, we know everything we need to know about JMI

The rig with the RAID is the system I work on all day. The fun stuff is on one of the other machines. I don't let my kiddies, who are already grown, play with my "art works". And maybe I AM the Feds.

Silver:

Yep. We know he recognizes a stable and functional machine which is capable of doing both work and fun and not prone to crashing every few minutes. At the time, I was using mostly music software and reversing the stupid PACE protection system which came with it. Still have a MAC for music processing and playback, although GigaSampler is pretty awesome on the windows side.

OK Kayaker:

Now that you've blown my cover by pasting my photo into that old submarine picture, I'm going to have to send someone up there to place a time delayed device in your Kayak, so that it sinks in some cold and frosty stream, when you are least expecting it.
