Re: very true crofter

We can only hope Microsoft learn from the mistakes, I hope they go to their knowledge base and read and understand all the security issues and bugs. I really hope Vistas will work well and be a turning point for Microsoft OS Systems. Fingers crossed.

Re: UN-funny comedians

I also fail to see the so called Genius of the Office. I watched one episode and found it to be one of the most unfunny so called comedies. Please if anyone here gets the Joke of the Office and what it represents please let me know Because I dont get it.

PC's came out on top for speed, price and performance, Mac's are closed architectured which means you cant upgrade them yourselves, and you have to take them to a dealer and they over priced. Even the top Mac ...

Re: UN-funny comedians

One thing I do not like in Comedy is Dead Pan, There are too many at it and they are all terrible. Worst stand up routine I have ever seen has to go to Jim Bowen, seen him in Blackpool years ago. He just went on about Bulleseye and the so called funny stories that stemmed from the show. Truly ...

Porn Cracker, telephone the cable companies and ask them about cable in your area, I called the last year and my street was not cable connected and they told me if you can get enough people to sign up to broadband in the street they will connect. In some cases there are areas that they will not ...
