18 hours, 24 hours, whichever, it was enough to drive me insane. I was starting to panic...what on earth would I have done if the MB had gone permanently broken?

And whether or not the long topic line is to blame (it was there for quite a long time before the MB went nuts, so I doubt it)...I for one would love to see it deleted. It makes my eyes ache. I need to be able to stare at the screen in bleary-eyed gloom as usual.
