lol yea. I found qemacs, too. But I had a horrible time with it. Usually if I want to just view a config file, I use cat.

I found a guide to installing Minecraft since I remember you saying you were a fan.

So Google just did a massive screw up.

They created a secret Google CR-48 group with everyone that has, or is currently in the pipeline to receive one. This would have been fine because it was secret.... Except they had the group doubly messed up.

First of all when people were added to the group they got a email, so now everyon that doesn't have a CR-48 and was added to the group knows that they will eventually get one.

But that's not all. The other problem is they had the group configured to send out messages EVERYTIME someone posted. Well there was a onslaught of posts and everyone got SPAMED which of course ticked people off.

So ya... If you got spammed by a Google group that you didn't join and don't have a CR-48 then... You should have one in the mail...

Are you guys covering your Cr-48 with any sleeves or protective covering? How about a carrying case? Sadly, I hid mine under my car seat when going into work (known area for a lot of car break ins) and a spring under the car seat left a long scratch on the lid. It's not bad, but I kind of want some kind of protective covering for it now.

I don't really move mine around, but when I do I toss it into my laptop bag which can easily accommodate my Dell Studio 17 and CR-48 so it's really a non issue for me.

Just throw it in the garbage and get a new one. That's what Google would tell you.

A garbage bag may work as good protective covering...
