    Yeah, the Splat Power books are basically "screw everyone who doesn't have DNDInsider" books.

    How good is the assassin?

    Looks pretty good. It's the class I want to play if I could ever actually play 4E.

    Any shooter on the PC should just use Steam.

    Everyone would be happier for it with the exception of game networks that suck.

    Reading Moby Dick at the moment... I fucking love this line:

    Signs and wonders, eh? Pity if there is nothing wonderful in signs, and nothing significant in wonders!

    Hell if I know dude. Do you mind traveling? Because the agency I work for will hire people with computer skills but no formal training, but you're part time worker and get deployed to temporary work sites. But basically if you get in good with your region you can be deployed year round.

    But it's government so you can't have any major thing on your record.

    It's how I got started. I went from that job to a GS-12 Federal Employee with an excepted service position. Yeah, it's coming to an end now, but I have 5 years of federal experience under my belt. Soooo..

    I could point you in the right direction if you want.

    Gotta travel though. Subject to 24 hour notice.

    You get a government charge card too.

    Mine has URR FORCE WUUUN on it.

    Gankutsuou was the most homoerotic anime I've ever watched.

    Of course I never read the Count of Monte Cristo, just seen the movie, so maybe there is some in the book too.

    Parallels is the most popular for OS X I think but it costs.

    http://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/

    There is also VirtualBox which is free but I don't think it's as good.

    http://www.virtualbox.org/

    Edit: There is also VMWare but it also costs: http://www.vmware.com/products/fusion/

    VWare Fusion or Parallels would let you run it virtualized

    alternatively, install windows via bootcamp

    Eh. I.T. is pretty fucked up on hiring. Really you could apply this to everything, but it all boils down to knowing someone really. Because I.T. Managers are the WORST kinds of good old boys.

    There are jobs I don't even apply for because they have in the title MCSE REQUIRED!!!!111ONE!!!

    Which, you know, that doesn't mean shit and they'll probably wind up hiring the comptroller's nephew anyway.

    Sarksus:

    You're in NY right? Region II would be your region and that's NY, NJ, Puerto Rico, and The Virgin Islands. Trust me they don't send noobs to the last 2 because you get fat, FAT per diem for them. But with this job you can go "unavailable" and not be deployed penalty free.

    If I had a MBP I would probably shell out the cash for Parallels because it will "extract" Windows applications out of the virtualization and they'll exist on your Mac desktop. It's pretty cool.

    If I can get myself working properly, I will pass all my classes (pretty much all by slim margins) and graduate in a couple of weeks. I don't have to walk, so I'm going home and resting for a while. And maybe someday I'll even get a job! Sigh.
