Yes, because Tiki is, as we all know, Beatnik!

oh, as an aside, apropo the computer virus /mac thread:

another advantage we mac users gloat over is:
No viruses touch us. Why!?

Hackers spend their time creating viruses for win doze, cuz it is the dominant user (percentage) platform. They want mass effect with minimal work. Taking the time to create a mac virus is false economics in their eyes.
also, each and every time you hear these radio computer programs; local, national or Kim Komando, (marry me, girl!)...
The problems are all fulla esoteric junk and I'm thinkin... "whaaaat!? A drive, B drive. huh!? do i have that? and no, course not; They are referring to PC's.... all the problems are windoze problems. Same with all the computer columns in the newspapers.

(course then we are asked; why do the majority of users use windoze?!)

accounting departments nationwide see the bottom line and as bean counters, tell purchasing to go out and buy the networkable CHEAPEST computers. But...
