Ah, surströmming. I had to look that up to be honest.
I found that one of our famous chefs had a go. Quite healthly looking I must say, fish oils are good for your bones.
How is your project going? I read the your thread a number of times each week.

Ah the 90s; my last decade of console ownership. After the Sega MegaDrive (Genesis) I never owned a games console other than the Nintendo DS for a few months before selling it on ebay back in 2006.
I was in my teens back then, my first windows PC had a i386 50 MHz CPU. I used to play a lot of Escape from Castle Wolfenstien and Team 17's Worms (Reunited).

I could not say that this is not the case in the UK; however there are new IT establishments outside of London which will hopefully provide more work over the next decade.
Are they planning to establish programming as a compulsory school subject in Sweden?
Things will hopefully improve. I think a new hardware trend will arise at somepoint which will replace the tablet market; this is a wild guess, but I have a feeling netbooks are going to come back into "fashion" and this single solution Windows OS movement Microsoft are making should make being a windows developer more feasible than it is now with all of these operating systems to develop for.
