I live in Bizarro World. IBM next-day service takes forever, and the cable company will fix my problem the same day, on a Saturday, over Easter weekend.
Played with the Gobby release candidate a little bit, and was happily able to use it to collaborate between Windows and Linux. Pretty sweet. Would love to see this pick up steam and be distributed widely in time for GUADEC note-taking- it was great at Summit.
