  2. I just thought it would look nice to have it in color for those with special skills. Hope you can find a way. I have seen it on other boards, but have no clue how they do it. Thanks anyway B Barb

    G4 Email

    Marty: If you have not joined Hotmail before, open up Outlook Express and top right see if you have "Go MSN", click that, home page loads, top right click "Sign In there you will have the option to sign up." After you sign up and are logged in, look at top for: more choices/settings/#9-send junk email away/mail/junk email protection/junk email filter. When you get there you will have 3 choices: Low, Enchanced, Exclusive. You will see explanation for each. I have mine on exclusive as you will only receive email from addresses in your contacts (address book). Check and make sure G4 has not got i
  4. CHILDREN AND CHURCH A little boy was attending his first wedding. After the service, his cousin asked him, "How many women can a man marry?" "Sixteen," the boy responded. His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly. "How do you know that?" "Easy," the little boy said. All you have to do is add it up, like the Bishop said: 4 better, 4 worse, 4 richer, 4 poorer." º°'°º?o,,,, o?º°'°º?o?º°'°º?o,,,, o?º°'°º?o?º°'°º? After a church service on Sunday morning, a young boy suddenly announced to his mother, "Mom, I've decided to become a minister When I grow up." Th

  6. Just a suggestion, but why not make the color code the same under their name, such as BestTechie Admin is Red; Moderator is Blue and so on. I hope this makes sense what I'm trying to say. It would stand out clearly when they post and it says Group: Admin and so on. That way you would not have to look at the bottom to see who is what. Just a thought. Barb
  7. Thanks for posting the message from G4. Sounds like Marsh is just in love and leaving G4. At least I hope that is all it is. il_wiccan will probably find out more about him and let us know I'm sure. I do hope he is OK. He is already a member here. Wish he would post here. Maybe he doesn't know most of you have come over here from G4 to stay. Take care, my friend Barb
  8. I also believe it's the manufacturers that have decided to do this. I think most of them do it now. I know Dell you can get the CD, but you have to ask for it, and you will be charged for it. At least that is what I read. I would not mind that. I want the CD for OS. Barb

    G4 Email

    Marty: That is a good idea. Change it to a FREE email addy like Yahoo, Hotmail or whatever, and don't log into that account for more than 30 days and they are suppose to de-activate it. After they de-activate it, sign up for a new one different name, or if you can unsubscribe. Netscape also has FREE email. These are just a few. Barb
  10. Try this web site for Sony Vaio: Sony Vaio There is a self service at the bottom. I couldn't go any further as I don't know your model. I think Sony calls it a Recovery Wizard. You might want to check and see if you have that. Click start/programs/accessories? It has to be somewhere, I would think. Not sure if this is what you need. I don't know anything about a Sony. I have a Dell, and on the newer ones it is located start/programs/dell accessories/dell os recovery cd. See if you have similiar only called Sony, of course. Barb
  11. Good one Marty. After all that you shouldn't feel anything. Barb

  14. I was going to say the same thing, and changed my mind. Haha Barb
  15. I like the Geiko. Get rid of the people, not funny and boring. Now, Dietech, I keep hoping they will go out of business so I don't have to listen to their horrible ads. They are everywhere. I guess they think the more they advertise the better. Not so, sometimes less is better. There are so many commercials now, that it is not at all enjoyable to watch TV. Most are so dumb that it is unbelievable, and annoying. They insult the intelligence of the people. I can't stand most commercials. The only one I like is AFLAC with the duck. I actually think they are funny. Now the ones that are really ann

  20. Happy Anniversary BestTechie Thanks Jeff for giving us a great place to gather, and chit chat with some of the nicest people on the net. It is so nice to be able to just talk to each other without restrictions as other boards have. We are definately family here. You can't find that on any other board. We have managed to combine a number of things here, Tech, Comedy, and assorted different topics of interest. I'm really glad to be here. I have fun just reading some of this stuff. Now on the Tech side, we have the best all around talent. No need to go any where else. Barb
  21. Good grief, is it a year already? I'll be there also. Wouldn't miss it. With all the new people here. we are going to need a keg or two or three.......... and some munchies, lots of munchies.......... Barb
