You have me laughing, friend.  Actually, I thought a cube was a four sided 
structure.  Anyway the site is down, right now.  I will go there again later.

When I had Compiz working before, it was kind of a memory abuser.  So I 
removed it.  In any event, my new computer should be finished in a week, if I 
can believe the motherboard manufacturer.  I just thought I would take this 
time to learn Intrepid and Compiz.  Wouldn't you know it, I couldn't remember 
how I got the octacube.  What do you think of my word invention.  It is good 
to hear your voice again.  I have been away for a bit.  By the way, I really 
like Intrepid, but there are some things I have to work through.

Cordially,
Steven
