any real engineer knows you can't do any real work on a pc. i do all my work on a unix workstation. the pc is just there 'cause my it dept. is too stupid to figure out how to forward email to my unix account so it has to go to my pc. anyway, who the hell cares if i only check email once a day - most of it worthless crap from it anyway!

so, since youre a 'real engineer' you must do all your real work on a unix workstation... fine. You don't check email that often (once a day) and all your windows workstation is for is to check email... than means you must have to unlock your workstation a couple times a day... thats something that only takes a few seconds to do. what's the big deal? If youre spending that much time watching your screen saver to the point it irritates you like that, then you must not be getting so much real enginnering work done these days.
