Vista: Sharing your entire Users folder

So I try to share a folder in one of my user accounts on Vista so I can copy files to it from another computer on my network. Instead of sharing that folder, it shares the "Users" folder and everything under it.

WTF?

I found an answer through the Interwebs (unshare "Users" and share the subfolder in question), but that resulted in the same thing.

I ended up sharing a folder at C:\. Not a huge deal, but still.

What's that other new OS out there...? Leotard or something...?

(Ubuntu: Fix the font rendering and general UI issues and you'll have me back! Though I am digging the latest version of MS-Office...)

TableSmith: Not, Nor Ever, a D&D-only Application

I noticed this earlier tonight on a forum:

Hmm... I may just have to give Tablesmith another look. Is it still a D&D only application as far as the system is concerned?

TableSmith has never been system specific. Some of the tables are, sure, but people have made tables for GURPS, Rolemaster, HARP, WFRP, Traveller, and a bunch of other RPGs.

It's always interesting how people perceive things.
