This looks madly cool: MoochiKit
- A lightwight javascript library (moto: MochiKit makes JavaScript suck
less). A highly documented and well tested suite of JavaScript
libraries that will help you get shit done, fast.
I wonder long till it's integrated with Rails? :-)

Computer update: making progress on installing everything, then
going to customise the beejezus out of it (again) so I have the colors
and keyboard shortcuts and software preferences juuuust right to go
back to development. At least I've got email back.
