We went to Toyota’s dealership in Ardmore, and it appears they cleaned out all the old sales people (good). The people that we met were very nice (very good). And the cars were pretty interesting (good). We received a letter that they’d be interested in letting me trade in my xB for what appeared to [...]
Hot damn. Truth be told, getting the fonts to look sharp required learning a LOT more about how linux handles fonts than I ever cared to learn (btw, Ubuntu does not have this problem).
