Mine was under File instead of More Apps.  Now I have to go download the 
thing again.  I hate windoze and I don't even like storing windoze stuff 
on my rig.  Wonder why? 

My brother got a digital camera for Christmas.  You have to plug in the 
USB camera then reboot winders for it to work.  Is that some crap or 
what?  I updated the drivers for USB too.  It  wouldn't work at all 
before I did that.  It would see the camera then come up with a hardware 
error.  Stupid windoze.  It took me 20 minutes to get it to work in 
Linux and I spent all day screwing with windoze.  Just in the spirit of 
things, reboot to make it work.  That sucks.  He's happy that it works 
at all but I'm not.  I may put Linux on that thing yet.  If I knew I 
wouldn't be moving soon, I would.  I'd put a bigger heatsink on the CPU 
and compile away.  He has seen my Linux and thinks it is cool.  I would 
have to do the admin stuff though.  Ssh comes to mind here.

OK.  I vented a bit.  One more thing to vent though, I HATE WINDOZE!!!
