I wonder if it has Gator and WeatherBug (I remember my mom couldn’t resist that kind of stuff, hastening yet another reformat).

At another auction this weekend, that money would have been better spent on a 911 Carrera RS 2.7 and a 997 Sport Classic. And you’d still have a few hundred grand to throw around.

I remember one year there was some viral game everyone was playing (involving Christmas elves, perhaps?) and I thought to myself that would be a perfect way to infect everyone’s machines.

That was it. I never played it, just watched and waited for someone to piggyback on that with some malware. Odd that it never happened, so far as I know.
