    ya'know It's kinda like I mean - really it's like watching a train wreck. you're not exactly sure what's going to happen next but you know there's no stopping it and its just going to be plain ugly

    @becn That's exactly what I thought!  Trainwreck!  Horrifyingly grotesque, but I can't look away. So, does that make HHH readers "rubberneckers?"

    I've got an idea.  What if we sent our real world IT situations in and made this our story (as requested). Let's see:   I used a Linux Live CD to resize an NTFS partition without losing any data. I use the Ultimate Boot CD for Windows to clone my desktops with XP images. I recommend OpenOffice or StarOffice to anyone looking for an affordable Office suite. I helped a coworker create a presentation for an All-Company meeting using Google Docs. I tell all my home internet users to surf with Firefox instead of IE. Our company is sticking with Windows XP until we have to replace our desktops . . . in 2 to 3 years. Add to the list!  What percentage of your IT heroics is done with MS software, and how much is accomplished with open-source and freeware alternatives?  And if we submit THOSE stories, will they see the light of day?

Now, to be fair, our company is primarily a Microsoft shop.  We'll be using Virtual Server to consolidate our single servers into a vitual framework.  We use Microsoft AD for our domain, and Exchange for messaging.

    Anyone else having trouble seeing the whole comic on 1024x768? It cuts off the last 50 pixels on my pc. Does Silverlight not have the capability to detect screen res? :P

    I'll try to be constructive here.  The art is great.  Each character has a distinct look, and the coloring is top notch.  The coloring is realistic, and I like the underlying pencil work, inking, and lettering. I like the use of RSS to distribute the comic.  Too few web comics use this basic distribution mechanism.   My one concern is pace.  It seems that the story is being drawn out, and everything is overly dramatic.  I think you could have used one page to cover what you did in three.

The pace is actually pretty decent. I know there's an RSS feed n' all but , if you want more at a time, simply check in on it once a week.

    Couldn't you guys provide a version that doesn't require silverlight? It could potentially increase your readership...
