Fair enought :D

I'm going to play Devil's Advocate here: what's wrong with the "The Chicago Way" style of corruption?

No, seriously. Hear me out.

There are two ways to do a project: follow a proper process to determine who should do a project (advertising the project, getting tenders, proposal analysis), or corruptly award the project to a campaign contributor. Let us make one assumption: end result is of the same or similar cost, quality and delivery date between the two companies. I consider that to be a fair statement, as most "process" chosen candidates simply game the process until they win, and then inflate costs and delivery dates after the fact. If cost( proper_process ) + cost( properly_chosen_company ) > cost( corruptly_chosen_company ) + cost( corruption_incidentals ), why not go with corruption?

After living in Chicagoland for half a decade, I have to admit that Shit Got Done in Chicago. It may have been morally bankrupt, but it worked.

You, sir, are one awesome, glorious, bastard.

Have you done any configuring of Wine to make Starcraft run better? I don't know and can't find the settings to make it smoother, and I find that playing it with Wine feels lagged or delayed.

This is not a bookmark.

I am currently running LAMP on Vectorlinux Light (6.0) on a K7 600MHz box with 768MB of RAM I originally bought in 1999. It still works, but I imagine it will die within a year or two.
