i remember when it also went the other way -- puting a pc card in your mac

a friend of mine did it with his 7600 but it didn't run so great

I got hold of a Quadlink from a friend... put it in my Compaq and it worked wonderfully about 90% of the time.

Those were interesting times, and that card was essentially an ISA form-factor Apple II. Not a trivial thing, though, as it had to translate all of the peripheral I/O while also holding the Intel processor in reset.

I love Chinese grammar. We eat fish, you ate a fish, they were eating fish, it's fish for dinner tonight--it's all the same: EAT FISH! The pronunciation is a pain though.

Spanish is even worse than Japanese with the verb conjugation.

A look of pure joy!

Dumbass stunt. I saw the full video a few years ago.

I can't find the full video, but this is a Youtube clip of it. It wasn't an accident - he intentionally rode that thing down. It was Duudsonit / Dudesons - Demolition Man, but they blocked the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8pesITOZPg

EDIT: Ok, this is a compilation of their stunts which includes that one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xxUBoR46xw

Okay... why is that $30/bottle, when the James T. Kirk bourbon was $70? Not fair.

Talk with your hands? Are you sure you're not Italian?

I did the PC Card thing at work. It was ok. Dual, simultaneous running of both Oses. Better than software emulation.

That is a dog that understands that that kitten is a baby and cares about it.

And Newfoundland has more dirty place names than all of them put together. Still disappointed I've never been to Dildo.

In addition to Beaver Creek in NE, there is also a Beaver Crossing. It is near Friend.
