Your network drawer looks like a rather handy solution. The waproamd
package is too flaky so right now I am just associating with networks
by hand. If I get the motivation I think I will set up something like
what you have going; I just never thought of it before :)

For my office needs I use OpenOffice. It works well for what I need:
taking notes and writing essays. I do, however, look forward to trying
out iWork '05.

&gt; While i do have VMWare, I only use it to run other Linux distros.  I use
&gt; Crossover Office to run MS Office, chiefly because it works, it works
&gt; well, and everyone i work with uses it (on CXO or otherwise).

&quot;All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts
pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it
is magnetic to the corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become
drunk on violence, a condition to which they are quickly addicted.&quot;
