Well, I missed the fun due to the fun of setting up DSL for a friend. I
can't complain as I made $50 out of it. It turns out that the software
that comes with SBC/ATT DSL is still rather crapware. On the first
install, it found the modem, the ethernet, and then spent 30 minutes trying
to convince me that an HP Officejet was in fact, a wireless router. I have
no idea either :) So, once I uninstalled it and cleaned up after it with
CCleaner, magically everything worked once WIN XP was allowed to do it's
thing without interference. I also managed to get Spanky to let me put an
Ubuntu partition on her box for her to toy with.
Another partial assimilation <cue Borg implant sounds>
