I know that one well. I nearly got trampled the last time I took about 
100 pieces of cat5E to a meeting to dispose of. Ditto for all the 
cards/motherboards/ram/etc I dumped in a couple of boxes.

I would've picked up more cat5E except that seeing as I was leaving the 
job I already had to carry the contents of my desk with me. Also, I 
don't know when I can next make it to a meeting as my fiance is 
currently working Saturdays until 3pm and usually quite done-over after 
a Saturday at his work. [ http://www.thediscshop.com.au/  he works at 
the Mansfield store. Yes we're affiliated with them since they pay our 
bills ;-)]

BTW, they're looking for sales/tech ppl at various locations around 
Brisbane/Sunshine Coast so if you've a year or so of experience and want 
work, check out the website and email in your resume to the appropriate 
store. The hours are good and the people friendly (well I can't speak 
for any store apart from Mansfield but I assume it's the same at other 
stores).

To bring this back to linux-esque-ness, has anyone used xfce? I know it 
by reputation only and was wondering what success folks have had with it.

Sandra.
