Thank you for your off-list advice, Mr jmk. I will visit the toy store after band practice. What model do you recommend? I have been saving my pocket money for just such a purpose.
You seem to be very good at Plan9. How do I learn such things? I'm a newbie. Do you play Unreal Tournament? I heard a rumour that it is used at Bell Labs. I am still a bit confused about the cost of Plan9. I don't want to be using a pirated copy, as I might get grounded. Also is qemu part of Inferno?
