>Did you get a promotion or raise out of this? :)

HAH! Counted myself lucky to get "comp time" for the hours spent over the 
weekend, so I could go to my daughter's school for a couple of hours 
yesterday. Money's so tight we've just cut our project team from six to 
two-and-a-half, even though our April deadline will now be moved out to 
the end of the year.

>Probably got a stern warning for using a Mac... ;-)

Not until the boss' boss' boss finds out about it! Then it wouldn't 
surprise me a bit. If he complains _too_ much, of course, we'll just tell 
him to add nine weeks to his schedule, for the next three passes we'll 
need through the code...

I'm _definitely_ going to try to get him to spring for a Mac & a copy of 
FB^3 for it "in house". A waste of time, but I'll still try. :-) I'm sure 
there's _some_ policy, somewhere, that forbids employees from bringing in 
their personal laptop and software...
