Wow, what is going on here??
Ya take a break from the net for a while, get a puppy, move to a new place, have a nice vacation, get a new computer with a different OS...
Only to find that WC has been invaded by Teddys!
Really though, I'd suggest to Windoze that if he believes that all should be free, and if he has the skillz he claims to have, he should really jump ship to Linux. So many distributions, so many options, really.. you might like it.
