And you couldn't be more wrong about why the Somali muslims were fighting. The undeclared war between the muslim faith and the rest of humanity IS the reason why muslims in MANY different countries have been, are now, and will continue to ...

No, not at all. You upgrade hardware because you want to do something you cannot do. Like play that new FPS with the nifty 3D graphics. If you do not want to upgrade hardware then the older software should work as well right?<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE ...
