I pretty much love LEGO unconditional. But the supply of the old colours will eventually run out. A lot of parts will not be available in the new colours for quite a while, so it is a problem for Moccers. How would you feel, if you had a car (...)

Well I'm kind of of pissed. ** begin rant ** Curious to find an acceptible substitute for Java, I was looking into cross platform GUI toolkits. GTK+ came to mind but alas no Mac support for the latest version. Then I thought of Qt. I visited the Qt (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

Guys (and Janey) This is probably old news, but my local Zellers has the Space Shuttle (URL) On for $29.99!! I hope it's not a local misprint, but I got the last two here for Christmas/Easter/Bday gifts for my nephews this year. Cheers, Ralph (21 years ago, 22-Jan-05, to lugnet.loc.ca)
