I have done this before, and know I am an ENTJ - which comprises something like 2% of the population. It's a visionary pain in the arse who thinks that rules and regulations are pointless, tends to think and react to things immediately and hates people who make mistakes.

Thanks for that, Bail Can you explain to me a couple of things: MSN/Live Messenger. Is Live Messenger replacing MSN Messenger, or is it replacing Windows Messenger? Or is it replacing both? IE7 - I've read that it's not actually all that terrible, so do I still want Firefox? Office Beta - I looked a...

Answers: Yes, lots of people use them. I did for a short period when I was in London a lot. How much do they cut fares? Depends who you are, how you use it, where you use it, when you use it, etc. There are different types for different travellers. Check the TFL website and it'll explain all. And ye...

So I've given in, and after two years of suffering with a Mac I'm changing back to Windows. (Partly prompted by the fact that the Mac is broken and my insurance policy expires in two days).
