As someone who has worked as a debugger, and with a Mac for 17 years, I
think I know what I'm talking about when I talk about debugging my own Mac.

Actually, dear, I wouldn't ruin the wine with Sprite, but if that's to your
taste, go for it. As to vehicles, I drive a 11 year old Jeep -- and yeah, I
can troubleshoot problems with that, too.
Did you want a copy of Sleepless? I don't own it, but I'm sure Blockbuster
can help you out though I think betamax went out with DOS.
Funny, I used to think this list was a great place to hang out.
