    Gawd - that's ludicrous...
    You don't have to. Only if you wanna talk to someone or don't have the internet.

    I'd think as a mac user you'd jump at the chance for outside interaction...

        I think it's considerably more ludicrous to buy an overpriced, underpowered computer from a proprietary vendor when the software selection is only a fraction of what you get with a cheaper, faster, PC...

        Far more ludicrous than activating your Windows copy over the internet (which takes less than a minute)...

          Well, I could have done the activation online too, but I was too lazy and the phone number was toll free (the automatic answering system made it speedy).

                  We don't do the "side" stuff here.

                  I'm not sure what you're talking about a "little town" for?

                        I live in Calgary. Edmonton is the other major city.
                        Smaller cities include Lethbridge and Red Deer.
                        Towns include Cochrane, Airdrie, Banff, Fort McMurray, Coots, Canmore, etc.

                        I have no idea what you're talking about, though.

                          ****, I got it right the first time? I was just trying to poke fun of how small towns are in Canada, but I ended up own-goaling concerning my knowledge of geography.... :sigh:

                            I'd hardly consider Calgary a "little town", seeing as it has 1 million people...
