I expect Windows 8 will be available cracked on or before its official release.

I still use LeechFTP. Lame, I know, but it works well in XP and I'm used to it. It was last updated in 1999.

I meant to type Pentium 133 but typed "5" for some reason. At the time, I had no idea you could "build" a PC. Since then, I've assembled every one of my systems, including the quad-core workstations now on my desk, which, with rebates, special Newegg codes, old cases, and careful shopping...

Pentium 5 Gateway in 1995. It cost $3000!

My external drive case has no power button. It's been running almost continuously for five years with no trouble. The drive seems small now, though. Might be time to swap it out for a bigger one.

I don't think the Firefox developers pay any attention to users at all. They just do whatever they want, and insult the people who complain about changes to the browser. They were indignant and contemptuous of users who didn't like the "awesome bar", until so many people expressed their...

Sounds like a right pain. I like Firefox the way it is. I'll probably not update until I absolutely have to. I used Firefox 2.x way into the 3.x cycle. I finally changed at 3.5 when add-ons became available to make 3.x behave more like 2.x. I remember the Mozilla developers' response to...

You can get what you need cheap. I buy from Newegg, but there are other options. I do video and 3D professionally. I use Q6600 quadcores, 4 gigs RAM, cheap cases and mobos. Less than $300 US per box, not counting drives and video cards. My main workstation has a GeForce of good repute, I...

Well, crap. I had Windows 7 on a spare machine, so I could become familiar with it. It worked okay for a few months. Today, the PC died. It was seven years old, so I suppose it wasn't a surprise. Might just be the power source. Hassle.

I have it on a spare machine, so I can get familiar with it. With some doing, it can be made to work like my Windows XP installs, which I have set to work like my Windows 95 installs. I don't like it when interfaces and features change for no good reason.

For what it's worth, I find the service here to be very good.

I can't delete this post. The problem is resolved. I now have access. Thanks, whoever fixed it!
