  1. Nice - Tableless, simple, light. I like it.
  2. The XPS is butt ugly, IMO. If you want a decent laptop that also looks good, try a Lenovo ThinkPad. They have some pretty good battery life and have hardware customization on purchase.
  3. When you occasionally have a really bad day, and you just need to take it out on someone, don't take it out on someone you know, take it out on someone you don't know. I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to make. I found the number and dialed it. A man answered, saying "Hello." I politely said, "This is Chris. Could I please peak with Robin Carter?" Suddenly the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. I tracked down Robin's correct number and called her. I had transposed the last two digits of her phone number.
  4. one of the best I've seen...
  5. Jim and Edna were both patients in a mental hospital. One day, while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Jim suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Edna promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out. When the medical director became aware of Edna's heroic act, he immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital. He now considered her to be mentally stable. When he went to tell Edna the news, he said, "Edna I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged, sinc
  6. Wait. That's my advice. The PS2 will soon be obsolete, and the Xbox 360 has no competition right now. You should either wait for the PS3 to come out, or consult good ol' Wikipedia on the Opinion free advantages and disadvantages of the systems.

  8. Hi, Well, I'm installing FreeBSD again as part of my monthly OS rotation. This time I want to add FreeBSD to the Windows NT(specifically XP) boot menu. What would I have to do to do this? Thanks for your help.
  9. Well, that's some good news...
  10. Actually, I tried that. Before this topic was answered to I e-mailed Plasma and he reset my account for me. Everything works now.
  11. I installed the Warez P2P file sharing program. After I noticed an increased amount of popups, I uninstalled the client. Now I still have that Adware called NewDotNet(in the program files directory) in 2 application extensions. When I try to delete them I cannot. Norton nor SpySweeper detect it(norton did, but I accidentally made it ignore it). Can anyone help me remove this from my computer? Your help is appreciated.
  12. I had installed the Workplace Shell for Windows 3.1 on my Windows 2000 computer. After rebooting my Taskbar and Desktop shortcuts were missing, and the workplace shell did not appear. I then opened Explorer via the task manager and followed the uninstall instructions for the WPS and uninstalled it. I still can only see the wallpaper - nothing else. Can anybody help?
  13. I was recently visiting my site after a while of ignoring its existance and I have found a problem - though all the files are still in their proper place(index.php both in the www directory and public html directory with chmod 755), I have found that it still displays HTTP 404 whether I specify index.php or not. Is there a way to fix the problem? I do still have access to cPanelx to fix it if anyone can tell me how I could... Thank you...
