That's a good point... the modem phone line is often sitting right next to
the huge laptop transformer. I'll have to experiment with that as well.

Thanks for your suggestions, everyone... I think we can let this thread die
now, since *some* people aren't finding it useful, it's such a waste of
bandwidth, and it's *obviously* off topic (tm).

BTW, what kind of cars are you all driving?

Also, anyone know where can I get a handgun while I'm here?</sarcasm>

Later,
Paul
