Re: Developers are after area @ south end of Skyway!

In a nutshell, the developer owns land, which can't realistically be built on, and is willing to give it to the State in exchange for a smaller piece of a preserve which nobody can build on anyway. Further, a partner in the development is a company that captures wild marine mammals for sale under th...

Re: Anyone here sell computers?

Just bought a Toshiba Satellite L-755 from Best Buy. Did my own set up including adding the Windows 7 Professional upgrade and the virtual machine to run ACAD 2000. I like that it didn't come pre-loaded with much beyond the basic operating system. 3 months and going strong.
