Hey Alexy, forgot to thank you for the funroll link. That brought a  
smile to my face :) Well actually I was laughing my ass off.

Totally reminds me of all the Windows users who hate Macs cause you  
can't get under the hood and customize them to work the way you want.
Always good for a laugh.

Thanks for sharing.
