Only downside is that Microsoft lives out here, too.
I've also lived in cities where the city library was the only option, and they do kind of suck. For some reason, city libraries are so stuck up about letting nonresidents use their facilities. They don't seem to understand the cooperation concept. I've got a friend that lives within tacoma city limits, and, because the city library doesn't want to share, he can't use any of the county libraries.

The Libraries in our area can't afford to have full collections and such because they would be stolen all the time, lol.
I live in Council Bluffs Iowa, which is right across the river from Omaha Nebraska, which happens to have at least 5-10 crimes daily that's TV news worthy...
