<yorkshire accent>That's nuthin'! When Ah were a lad, we 'ad to print out
the output from Xorg on a dot matrix printer, an' then paint it onto the
screen by 'and wi' felt pens. An' if there were a segfault, the kernel would
*explode* an' kill us all. You tell that to the kids today an' they don't
believe you!</yorkshire accent>

Sorry, couldn't resist it! :-)
