[The Java Posse] Android bug: pretty funny

2008-11-08 Thread blake
Not pure java, but this bug is pretty funny. As a colleague of mine said, "good thing I don't have many conversations in which 'rm -rf /' is an interesting thing to say". http://blogs.zdnet.com/Burnette/?p=680 btw, I know it is weeks late, but slow, slow, quick, quick, slow is probably a tango.

2008-11-08 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
