Then he must have bid on expensive items. It's impossible
to lose thousands when you bid on $1 items.

I've only been burned once -- I lost a whole $3.
The biggest bid I've ever made at an online auction
was $40.

It's a bit like going to the casino -- never risk more
than you are prepared to lose.

Interesting... another problem with Xvesa. I suggest
you install a proper Xserver (instructions are on the
BL3 homepage).

Why buy $1000 hardware, when $20 hardware provides similar
functionality (using appropriate software).
