I even got me a Neoprene cover, aka the Condom :-)-O Of course me being a linux user I have downloaded all the tools I need to make it behave like a proper unix computer so I can run programs from the command line :-)-O. In particular there is just no mail program that can handle my load, 70000 mail messages, in 3000 folders at 1.5GB disk space, filed by subject line (mainly) automatically, lot's of spam filters and a retrieval egine that looks up all mails with Anna and Meenan in within 10 seconds. Otherwise we use linux on my dekstop, my kids' desktop and and my wife's laptop (used to be mine before Christmas :-)-O. In my practice I have to use Winblow because the practice software doesn't work with anything else, but have put it behind a firewal and my secretary understands the concept of virus so she isn't bringing any disks. We use OpenOffice on all three operating systems, but I personally only if I have to. I am used now to LateX which is a scientific typesetting software which has a nice front end called LyX (using the What You Get is What You Deserve principle :-)-O) and many little add ons. The kids are not tempted by the dark side, since they grew up on linux. And they have one of two XBoxes in the country. I used to play on an LCIII 10 years ago. greetings, el PS: Yes, I have an iPod :-)-O. Works with linux but with the SLN it is just mind blowing.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
