They share the same mouse and keyboard, so I can type or copy and paste between them. I'll typically do Web stuff on the Mac and e-mail and chat stuff on the PC. What does this actually mean? A Mac with a virtualized Windows instance on one of the monito…

We both underslept, got like 4-6 hours per night, and then stole sleep whenever we had nothing important to do.
