For the record.
You rock for running a Quadra.
One of my alltime favorite macs.
You have earned my personal respect in one post.

Yeah I dont think we'll see any significant trouble from the titles/meters.
This site probably has the lowest flame/spam/pointless thread content of any computer-themed board on the internet.
We really have a good community.

K&R and Stroustroup are the bibles of C and C++, but I wouldnt reccomend them to somebody just getting their feet wet in the world of programming.
I agree with Diego.
the Deitel "C how to program" and "c++ how to program" are easy and effective
Being a TA for computer science at the university level (despite one that believes that java is the universal answer to everything) , my bias is that if these are the languages you want to tackle, i would learn C first.
Get a good intro book, then use K&R to master the material.
After youve got that down, and programming SGIs are what you are interested in - look into the following
-A book covering Motif.
- C Interfaces and Implementations by David Hanson
(This book rocks at teaching you how to write quality code in C)
- A decent OpenGL book
I wish I could give better examples but I am at work and my library is at home. I'll edit this later.

M$FT is like heroin its addictive and self destructive.

Generics and autoboxing would be sweet....
Where can I find a copy of the 1.4.1 JRE?

Depends on situation:
But for starters: Guinness never fails. Ever.
Other than that:
Becks and Becks Dark are favs of mine.
For the most part, I hate American Beer.
But occasionally Milwaukee gets something right:
Leinenkugel Honey Weiss is pretty damn good considering where it came from!

However if I'm visiting the family back in Chicago and am at a Cubs game, only Old Style, foulest of american beers will suffice.
Tragically I can't get that when I want to go watch my favorite hockey team on a 12 game or so losing streak, so at the Blackhawks I'll reluctantly drink Miller.
My favorite hockey beer is made by people who truly know and appreciate Hockey, Canadians. Molson has got to be one of the bests in its genre imho. (Maybe if they had that at the united center they wouldn't have so much trouble struggling to fill one fifth of the seats...)
As for the harder stuff - I dont really do that so much anymore - but a good russian vodka is always hard to turn down.
