Tell you what. Put up GADGETS. Get the four top gadgets. They are monitors for your net, your CPUs your HDs and your GPU.

My 40" runs under a 4 core Atom.

There are wells involved here?

They were here before 911, so there was no money wasted, and both that guy and you are more stupid than I originally observed.

Not hard to bogle your mind, I see.

not at all. Linux mint 7 is free for anyone, is well suited to people with zero experience of linux, and can be tried without installing or changing a single thing. Personally I've run out of interest in windows, its gone from a troubled OS in the 98 days to an OS I find it hard to understand why anyone would choose to use now.

BTDT too many times to see this approach as anything but a waste of time.

They just released 12, idiot.

Yes, and I dont recommend it. I gues you failed to figure that eh.

I guess he's one of those people who must have the latest version of everything.

That's how Henry Ford, Walter Chrysler, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and the manufacturers of cellphones got rich.

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." (Richard Feynman)

Ford... not so much. Don't know much about Chrysler. the Model T was in production from 1908 to 1927.

Ford adapted to the "new model every year" thing only after Chevrolet started beating them in the marketplace with that.

Have you considered an intervention? :)

You can't have a sense of humor, if you have no sense.

He might intervene me... he's one helluva programmer, now involved with another start-up... and he's concealed carry ;-) ...Jim Thompson

| 1962 | I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

Years? I just got this XPS not to long ago, it sat in the box for about a 2 week before I even opened it, then I only used it like 2/3 times and then my trial subscription of everything on it of course, ran out!

It would be nice if they metered machine time to adbin the trials instead of using date spanding for the calculations.

Oh well, no matter, most of it is crap software design to empty your pockets. That is what they call their version of uninstalling the software. No need to bug you when you no longer have money..

and thinks everyone else must too, even when the later versions are way slower.

It strikes me as one of the big diseases of the 20th century, and causes so many wallies so much trouble.

NT

Good move. Try to pay attention in the future.

Wot the *hell* do adbin and spanding mean?

Good! You know what it's all about. So, why are bitching over something that doesn't matter?

No. I am one of those guys that thinks that if someone mentions an OS release that is damned near two years old, THEY should qualify the suggestion, and *I* will mention it to them.

Yeah, and you'll buy my s*it too, regardless of which release level it is at.

Its one thing to ask why, quite another to call someone an idiot simply because you've no idea.

And why did you take the time to even bother replying?

And if you were a programmer of years ago, you would know what the acronym of "Adbin" is. of course it isn't used much these days, to many young learning to use tools with multiple layers of libraries and pre written DLL/OLE/COM/ACTIVEX/CLR to do it for them and they call themselves a programmer, until something breaks on one of those sources, then they're done!
