Not me personally, despite being in the forces I'm a coward when there's a chance of me getting hurt It was a reference to my (all too) frequent trips to Afghanistan this month.

Is it business or pleasure that takes you to Egypt?

Same here. Getting the premium. Getting a Macbook for my son for school. 160 gb HD. How much do you recommend I partition for Windows?

50 gb?


Don't. Just get VMware Fusion or Parallels and run Windows in a virtual machine. Works great!

Note as I said before, only Ultimate and Business are licensed for such. Vista Ultimate is not much more than premium.


Parallels Desktop 4.0 will be on the computer. Thanks for the help.

pleasure my buddy's family is from there his dad moved back there to run the familys manufacturing and other interests. and evidentlty he has a house on the med in alexandira and a yacht. so spending a week on the med seemed like a cool thing to do. plus i have never been to africa.

Well, it depends on your definition of "play". I bought it on 27 July but haven't actually played a turn. I ran one historical turn just to see the changes in industry on 8 Dec. Other than that, I've been gathering data and trying to figure out the Japanese. I'm going to begin a Japanese first turn this weekend. +

The vaccine will be out in November, about a month and a half after the epidemic is expected to have run its course.

Bra-vo...

Heels bashed with push chairs (strollers) without so much as a "sorry". But our son had a good time even if Mrs P and I are knackered after a 270 mile round trip. Hey Ho.

We even bought some Lego.

If they were to insist on a proper name for those it would be 'wheeled poop toters'.

Don't know how many of you are old enough to remember this, or how many weren't stoned enough to recall, but somebody finally figured out the lyrics to Joe Cocker's "help From My friends" song. Enjoy.

Ciao. John
