    US's declining economy

    Regardless it is not the president that determines the economy. In our situation, it is up to Wall Street and Congress to determine what's best. Personally I'm happy the bailout didn't pass. If businesses made bad loans out of sheer greed, they should be punished. People who were taking out...

    I've never heard of Navtech, it is likely your laser has gone kaput. I still prefer ball mice

    Gas pumps cheating

    I'm sorry but watered down gas will ruin your engine. The only time water manages to get into gas is if rainwater gets into a leaky/rusted underground gas tank. If oil companies put water in their gas you'd immediately see stories about people's cars being unable to start and run smoothly...

    Warez or no Warez?

    Who doesn't? Honestly us college students can't afford to shell out hundreds of bucks on Office and other programs necessary for school. Sure we could all use Wordpad, but teachers want assignments emailed in .doc form All software will be free one day, it's just inevitable. Gotta put ads in...

    Flight Sim Laptop

    IMO I have had way better experiences with Dell laptops than Sony or HP laptops in terms of customer support and lifetime functionality

    Gas pumps cheating

    A. Gas has gone up, and station owners are being affected B. Sometimes the pumps break down over time, thus a legit reason they're off C. There were reports of many Texaco stations in Texas owned by one owner that had many pumps that were off. I believe he was fined. D. Oil companies are making...

    What does everyone drive?

    2001 Honda Accord, at least while I was home.. in Austin, you walk everywhere. Driving around here is a pain.. even worse is parking. They keep on adding stories to the garages around here

    Windows 7(Vienna)

    So Vista truly is truly the modern day Millenium Edition! Feel sorry for the users that get it preinstalled. But my opinion is based on whether your answer is true or not

    Some Important Laws

    Actually, hammers don't roll in my experience. Nor wrenches. But definitely screwdrivers, so this is only partially right. Take a shower instead! I'm usually the one that proves to someone that the machine WILL work The rest are pretty good, minor exceptions exist I'm sure

    Windows 7(Vienna)

    You think that's awesome? Haha I guess I'm old fashioned for liking buttons, joysticks and mice I have a feeling that Windows 7 might be anything major if it's going to be released this early.. probably a Vista improvement with a bunch of under the hood changes (hopefully they rebuilt it from...

    Windows 7(Vienna)

    I would hate to use anything other than a mouse and keyboard.. Minority report? Bah my arms would get tired As long as 7 is better than Vista and XP, I'll be more than happy. Obviously Vista was a let down..

    US's declining economy

    I'm not an economist so I can't measure how bad our economy is, but it seems like we do need some help before we end up heading down that path. However, businesses should be liable to pay back the government once they get back on their feet.

    McCAIN Vs. Obama

    Kenny, you do know that Obama now supports offshore drilling? Also the democrat-controlled congress just let the offshore drilling ban expire, so hopefully we'll see some relief at the pumps

    Google G1

    I'm an advocate of free cell phones, so until it's free, nope. I'm enjoying my old Motorola v195s. 17 day standby, 8 hours of talk time, and the highest amount of electromagnetic radiation of them all

    OEM Vista

    You might also want to check with the manufacturer of the laptop and make sure they have drivers for your hardware made for Vista I know specific HP laptop models have hardware drivers only for Vista, and none for XP (thus making downgrading nearly impossible)

    Adobe CS4

    Bah don't care. Adobe has gotten more bloated over time. The last one I ever used was CS2, which I consider was much more bloated than 7. However I'm not a major graphics editing guy.. so I've switched to Paint.NET and have used it ever since
