Thank you for your off-list advice, Mr jmk. I will visit the toy store
after band practice. What model do you recommend? I have been saving
my pocket money for just such a purpose.

You seem to be very good at Plan9. How do I learn such things? I'm a
newbie. Do you play Unreal Tournament? I heard a rumour that it is
used at Bell Labs.

I am still a bit confused about the cost of Plan9. I don't want to be
using a pirated copy, as I might get grounded. Also is qemu part of
Inferno?
