As long as it's not one of the ones back and forward with Mobius...

How do you see what people have actually said? I can look at the post that's been commented on but not what the comment was...

The M25 is a distinguished road. Unfortunately it's distinguished by being so bad ;)

Once upon a time, there was no M25 - only the North & South Circulars. They were/are bad!

have some sort of funny handshake, etc
maybe even a ... funny walk!
then we could have endless committee meetings about how to behave... or not.
hmmm, actually, that might be a stoopid idea.
Sounds like an Oolitist idea to me.

After having followed the Frontier Forum for a while now, I think I have some jobs for you.
I'm sure we can agree on a price acceptable to us both.
You might find your that your services are in great demand by the way.

<chortles> Commander Skywalker springs to mind. Don't they realise it'll be like putting on the dreaded red shirt?

In my opinion a tablet (Android or Microsoft Surface) and IPad version should be consider before Linux. There are certainly more IPads than Linux desktops. It would be a much larger audience than a Linux version
Would a spokesbeing for the penguinistas care to comment?

Yes. Whoever said that is a tw*t! Android is a Linux operating system so it can't be done 'before', and as Microsoft Surface sales of around only 1 million units are barely half what was predicted I don't think Linux desktops will have any trouble winning the numbers game there.
Also it is very disappointing to hear. :(
