    I saw that one, I think.
    Strange guy.
    He also seemed to be prone to engaging in theological discussions . . . or was that someone else?

    If rambling along merrily on abstract nuances of Human society is considered theology well than yes....that would be him.

      Wonder who'll be the next to go that way?
      Not counting Proph, or whatever he wants to call himself.

      I see.

      Sorry, but I can just see you "rambling along merrily on abstract nuances of Human society" like Merlin.

      The ME computer that I have has no editable BIOS.
      (in other words, there is no "Press DEL to enter SETUP")
      What is "Wake on LAN" anyways?

      You don't always press DEL. It depends on the Make and model of computer.
       
      Click on the self-help link and then look for BIOS codes.
       
      It should tell you on the boot screen.
      (That was Mac)

      Which was what suprised me the most about him. He very often came up with solutions that no one had thought of and sent people on their merry way.
      The man was an enigma...

      You know, its also incredibly possible that he had a serious medical condition. eg: ADHD (which, yes, is worse than ADD)
      Obsessive compulsive is also possible in some cases.

      That's a thought.
      I wouldn't know, having joined after he left, but it sounds plausible.

        He was sort of like Backdated. He could think of brilliant solutions, but he was... less than inclined to sanity. :-?

        Backdated was the one who liked to flame you, right?
