New MoC's: The MoC staff has been hired... expect new MoC's soon! :) Weekly Top 5: Top 5 scenes in Episode II (may contain spoliers):     5- Anakin & Padme on Naboo     4- Jedi's and Clones battle the droid army     3- Chase through "streets" of Coruscant     2- Mace Windu giving Boba Fett one heck of an emotional scar     1- Yoda vs. Darth Tyranus (Note- this Top 5 is the opinion of the COMM and in no way reflects the opinions of GA Ronin, SA Astatine, or the EH as a whole; it's just intended to be fun)

COMM Product Review: This Week's Product: MSN Instant Messenger Although not normally an instant messenger I use (Read: The COMM forces me to download these products, help!), MSN surprised me with it's versatility. Not only did it allow me to painlessly check my inbox (which is a rarity on dial-up), but it also allows me to auto-launch Jedi Knight 2, Netmeeting, and most likely a variety of other programs. Needless to say, I was impressed. Highs: Voice chat, file transfer capabilities, easy interface, mobile interface, all the perks of an Instant Messenger. Lows: Won't close sometimes when IE or Outlook Express is open. Could be a little less Microsoftian. Other than that... Overall: Even though Motti forced me to download it, it's a pretty good product. 9 out of 10 COMM Office Stars -Review by CA:COMM/RA Ziggy

That's all for this week, thanks for reading! Admiral Motti, Communications Officer COMM/AD Motti/CS-8/SSSD Sovereign SSx2/BS/PC/MoT-1rh/MoC-2BoC-2SoC-1GoC/OV-4E {IWATS-SM/1} COMM Office: http://www.ehnet.org/~comm
