howdy y'all,
take a look at this set of articles by the original Cringely.
- Not your father's IBM (I, Cringely - Cringely on technology)
http://www.cringely.com/2012/04/not-your-fathers-IBM/
it's a very well thot out condemnation of ibm and it's planned 75% north america emloyee count reduction. definitely bean counters doing their usual "forest for the trees" gutting of a company.

Technology Without An Interesting Name

howdy y'all,
in addition to the chemicals mentioned above, _really_ cheap perfume works quite well. i use it to chase the danged feather rats [aka - pigeons] away from my bedroom window. my neighbor uses it to zap dogs and cats when he finds them mucking around with his plants. doesn't take much usually 4 units of water to one of el cheapo perfume. those pump action swimming pool guns work nicely.

howdy y'all,
as others have mentioned, text-only zoom breaks this new layout. the left side text block overlaps the left edge of the conversation display in ff3.x with text zoom [NOT "all" zoom, just text] set to anything above 110%. that makes
12345
plus, as others have also mentioned, the speed is even slower than the previous rather slow version. oh, well, i hope i can find a script over on userstyles.org to fix this mess
take care,
