I can't believe you didn't make fun of him for not knowing what RAM is :D
You must be some kind of super-being.

Her ;)

For whatever reason, guys tend to make fun of other guys alot more than women.

I must admit that I was not sure what RAM was although I have heard of it before (yet I honestly don't know how to find out how much my computer is using *right now*). But I did post that just to see who would respond/what they would say. Thanks for showing a little patience with us not-so-computer savvy people!

;)

Check out my display

(Speaking in Chandler's tone): Could you be any more text-based?! :Q :D

yep ;)

Bleh! That is plain sick. I'm gonna bust you up if you don't get some graphics on that calculator of yours!

And rename your domain, please. Every time I see it, I think it's "incest".

wq.ath.cx and mcd.ath.cx point here too, you could always write something that plugged into IE and changed all incise.org url's to one of those :p
