Do you support huge 180x180 avatars?

I had to ask IT to put another stick of RAM in my laptop because Eclipse, Visual Studio, Outlook and Firefox running simultaneously was using way more than 4GB of RAM.

Bad points: the RAM is soldered in so I can't upgrade it.

Coward. In the OLD DAYS soldering was the only way to upgrade RAM. So break out the iron, sucker, solder, and paste and get cracking

Not Lasik. I had severe cataracts and had my lenses replaced a couple years ago. The replacement/upgrades are acrylic.
One eye is corrected for near vision (20/15), the other for distant. Actually, my vision is pretty awesome.

Totally bionic.

Holy hell. Modern medicine is ****ing cool as ****.

Compiler, IDE, database, cache, search engine - it adds up

Sometimes I'm able to shut down the IDE while I'm compiling, but that's not always an option

but can it play Crysis?

How would you know?

It's a Mac - if it weren't for Wine there'd be about ten games you could play on it regardless of its specs, and nine of those games would have ASCII graphics

Some of it, definitely. After a lifetime of glasses and contacts, I remain amazed, four years later, at the awesomeness of intraocular lens implants.

This technique - one eye for near, the other for distant - is called monovision correction. I'm rarely even conscious of it; my brain just uses the appropriate eye automatically. Some people can't handle it; they get massive headaches. Fortunately, I had this type of correction on my contacts for a few years (it can be achieved with Lasik as well I believe), so I ordered my new eyes with confidence.

So when you play CivBE you'll be stuck playing Supremacy every time ...

Lori, is mine an issue? I can swap if that's the case.

I hope MrFun won't replace his avatar with these TMNTs...

I did it once in electronics class

I got suspended once in sophomore year of HS for screwing around in the electronics lab. We had these huge machines that could put out a lot of power. I turned up all the settings to max and zapped a combination lock.

I got banned from the electronics lab.
