    NB>> Depends on what special deals there might be, eh...?   
      
    MK> Either that or what happens to be available.  I waited too long a   
    MK> couple years ago and had to "settle" for a 12 year old Glenfiddich.    
    MK> :::sigh:::    
      
   You could have worse... much worse... ;)   
      
    MK> The problem this year is that funds are short at the moment and there   
    MK> are a few things I want to do that cost around the same as a good 12   
    MK> year old so I'll have to risk it.  However I am sure something decent   
    MK> for the occasion will be available.    
      
   And you do have a month or so to scare something up... ;)   
      
    NB>> And has this one also been sent from the raspberry pi...?   
      
    MK> No.  It was the same one as this one and judging by the tearline it is   
    MK> an eight core intel jobber I use for experimenting and was hosting   
    MK> "Little Mikey's Brain" which used to be the fidonet node.  As you can   
    MK> see now it is now part of the EuroPoint triad.  I believe I have them   
    MK> all in sync now.  The Dutch one is the actual host of the EuroPoint   
    MK> and will show the Dutch version of the cybertoast tagline when   
    MK> responding or posting to you.  This one has LANG=en_CA.utf8 which is   
    MK> the Canadian version of English.  I doubt anyone would notice the   
    MK> difference between this and en_US.utf8.  ;-)    
      
   Probably not... especially in this case....  :)   
      
    NB>> I saw that it was Mikey's Brain   
      
    MK> Right.  I've corrected that now as shown below.  Also I am   
    MK> experimenting with a beta version of bash whereas the other two are   
    MK> the latest stable version.    
      
   Yes, I see that.... and the beta version.... :)   
      
    NB>> I don't think it's broke, but I'm trying to fix it anyway.   
      
    MK> That is known as standard operating procedure here.    
      
   So I've noticed.....      
      
    MK> Mind you there are   
    MK> always something that needs fixing but usually not broken as such.    
      
   Always upgradings.... and thoughts of how to do things just a little (or   
   a lot) differently....  ;)
