    PS: are you using Eclipse too? I like it even if my usage of Eclipse is, somehow.. very basic to say the most
    Yes. I find it very useful. For most things I would just use vim. But with eclipse I can find syntax errors that I've made, and also I can use ctrl + alt + o to add imports. It's a nice tool to have around if you're playing with java.

    When I was your age we had a 2400b modem, AND WE WERE BLESSED!! Took 10 minutes to download a dirty picture at 640x480 with only 4 colors and you would only get 1/3 of it because your Mom would pick up the phone.

    Blessed I tell ya....
    Yeah, I may not have been around back then, but aren't you glad with what you can do now?
