Hey man, be different!

Don't be a sheep! Break away from Bill Gates - be cool, wait awhile. Then
get (drumroll) an A/Box! 

Dunno what an a box is? No worries! Go to Yahoo, and do a search for
"A/Box" (in relation to Phase 5, Amiga, etc).

Do yourself a favour man... dedicate 15mins of your time and follow this
free advice...

Can I please hop on the band wagon like all those others? please? OK cool.

"... you're a wanker! bugger it, get a Dec Alpha! 500mhz..."
"... Screw it knob end! get an SGI! Ha!..."

Sorry, but it was soooo fun :)

Party on man!
