But, being the former grease monkey that I am, nearly all power windows suck to try and fix. Someone at work asked me if I ever wanted to sit down with a bunch of engineers and ask why they design computers the way they do (meaning layout configurations in the cases/towers). My response was: "Nah, computers are simple. I'd really like to sit down and watch the engineers who design today's cars try and work on them." I thought I heard mention somewhere that they might be putting Linux into the on-board computers of cars. Anyone have some confimation on this? Shawn
