I was more concerned about Scott and Bear because there was nothing there to
indicate that the joke was alrady known. Peter's answer contained some
sarcasm.
I wonder how an IRC channels (e.g. mIRC) can ever be seen as a useful O/S, or
even a main function of an appliance. I know that the wii will have an IM
client called !!m. That's "wii" upside down and also stands for instant
messenger. Cute. But it'll offer some other polygonal junk. Big-budget games
with innovation value of zero.
Best wishes,
Roy
