sraunI got my box from Levenger yesterday
It contained:
And one nice thing just came out of the recent staff reduction at work - I have another laptop long-term, that I get to play with Linux on. I'm going to try to build a functional work-equivalent PC - which means X, OpenOffice, CD burning, DVD player, music player, wired & wireless networking, getting it to talk to Windows 2003 Active Directory Services for file & printer sharing, using the e-mail & calendar with Exchange 2003, and see how much farther I get. We've got an app that theoretically runs over the web, but it installs a bunch of customized extensions to Internet Explorer - if I can get it working, I will be very impressed! I figure my chances of getting the ADS & Exchange admin tools working are near zero - I may install WINE or Codeweavers CrossOver Office just to see how far I can get.
It contained:
- 1 Rotring Skynn fountain pen (in blue medium point)
- 1 set of 10 J-Rollers in red, orange, pink, turquoise, green, purple, blue, grape, black and yellow.
- 2 Single Sheet Cutters - one for me, one for Irene. These are great for cutting out newspaper coupons and similar things
