I would say that I need to find some more activities for your key.
Actually, my Business visa to Saudi has me listed as a Muslim in
'Arabic. I could just have been visiting Bait Al Maqdis. :)

What I did was have Nemo's book and a number of the papers printed and bound
for $40 US.
Swing by your local Popcopy and have one of the apathetic and condescending

Actually I used Plan9 on VMWare workstation for Linux for quite a
while without too many problems. Then again all I was doing was
working though Nemo's book. :)
VMWare Fusion is definitely not yet ready for prime time, I have
noticed some interoperability problems with other Guest OSes (FreeBSD)

Greetings fellow 9fans,
I am having a strange and annoying issue with Plan9 inside vmware

seemingly randomly, "jump" into and out of the VM. That is to say that

Thanks Russ,
I'll try this once I am out of the office (gmt +3 here, what are you
doing up?? :) ) and write back int the problem persists. The build
that I used is probably 2 weeks old.

Hi Mr Forsyth,
I tried to respond to your directly, but the mail bounced.
Here in Saudi Arabia tinyurl is blocked (by the govt). Is it possible
that you (or someone else) can expand the URL for me and send it to me

Indeed,
I have been toying around with the idea of building a larger scale

I would like to see a plain white and otherwise unadorned T-shirt with
