    Default I think my school is going broke

    The mouse pads in the computer lab are as big as the monitor.

    Seriously.

    Not to say that i don't mind squinting at a monitor that may as well be the size of my cell phone, but i think Mr. President hates North Dakota.

    Also! I wrote a sweet poem (i'm currently in my Creative Writing class) about Roman warfare. Inspiration came from one of my favorite PC games, Rome: Total War.

    Makes me wonder if they have an overglorified sports dept. like the school I went to... you could tell even more because the cafeteria didn't serve food but actually failed kindergarten art creations.

    I didn't know they made 32" wide screen mouse pads. Got a link?

    We didn't even have a mouse for the computers when I went to school. Still, most people learning and growing up at the time created some of the biggest advancements the computer world has ever seen. It's interesting that we could run huge corporations using monochrome monitors. I'm sure you'll be able to survive with a 15" crt.

    It wasn't quite 15"

    the mouse pad was the average size one you could find at wal mart.
    It felt like 8"

    but it gets us by during the class period.

    at school we had one computer room, filled with 10 computers that had windows 3.11 and 20 that were dumb terminals.


    Mary had a little lamb. It bumped into a pylon. Ten thousand volts went up its arse and turned its wool to nylon!
