Pfft A real geek already owns the brief history of time...and has read it (And doesn't need illustrations...make it sound like it's a kids book  ) _________________TwitterCharlie Brooker: Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.

When you spend your evening wading through old HOWTO posts and converting any relevant ones and updating a couple from an old forum to a new forum...
Can I just say that PHPBB sizes are stupid....Over on Dennis size 24 was "Huge", here it's 200...Which made life a little harder than I would have liked!
