 NB>> Depends on what special deals there might be, eh...?

 MK> Either that or what happens to be available.  I waited too long a
 MK> couple years ago and had to "settle" for a 12 year old Glenfiddich. 
 MK> :::sigh::: 

You could have worse... much worse... 

 MK> The problem this year is that funds are short at the moment and there
 MK> are a few things I want to do that cost around the same as a good 12
 MK> year old so I'll have to risk it.  However I am sure something decent
 MK> for the occasion will be available. 

And you do have a month or so to scare something up... 

 NB>> And has this one also been sent from the raspberry pi...?

 MK> No.  It was the same one as this one and judging by the tearline it is
 MK> an eight core intel jobber I use for experimenting and was hosting
 MK> "Little Mikey's Brain" which used to be the fidonet node.  As you can
 MK> see now it is now part of the EuroPoint triad.  I believe I have them
 MK> all in sync now.  The Dutch one is the actual host of the EuroPoint
 MK> and will show the Dutch version of the cybertoast tagline when
 MK> responding or posting to you.  This one has LANG=en_CA.utf8 which is
 MK> the Canadian version of English.  I doubt anyone would notice the
 MK> difference between this and en_US.utf8.  ;-) 

Probably not... especially in this case....  

 NB>> I saw that it was Mikey's Brain

 MK> Right.  I've corrected that now as shown below.  Also I am
 MK> experimenting with a beta version of bash whereas the other two are
 MK> the latest stable version. 

Yes, I see that.... and the beta version.... 

 NB>> I don't think it's broke, but I'm trying to fix it anyway.

 MK> That is known as standard operating procedure here. 

So I've noticed.....   <G>

 MK> Mind you there are
 MK> always something that needs fixing but usually not broken as such. 

Always upgradings.... and thoughts of how to do things just a little (or
a lot) differently....
