Further: is perl -d now so slo

I just had an agent call about this, and I've seen it on Jobserve. His
story is that it's a 3 month contract to cover while a permanent body is
hired. I think they're on a hiding to nothing, no-one I know who has

That being the case, please feel free to recommend cheap DVD players to me.
This is probably asking for trouble on a unixey list, and especially to a
PS2 owner, but you might like to consider an XBox. You can get them new f
Both PS2 and PC-based DVD playback crop up regularly in problem emails sent
to my company (we rent DVDs) normal DVD players almost never (except
regarding region encoding).
My advice is to get a dedicated player.
