    Who Here Grabbed Windows 7?

    I've been fortunate enough to be running the 64 bit Windows 7 Professional (the full retail version) for a little over 1 month now due to the Microsoft Developers Network Academic Alliance (MSDN AA). Best windows release I've ever worked with, and a refreshing change of pace from Vista 64 bit...

    Charter! >=[

    No real surprise here. Charter is the most ungodly awful ISP to ever exist, and it should be no surprise that they had to file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy recently. The real sad thing is that they have some areas near-completely monopolized for broadband internet service.

    Backup Proposal, Please Leave Feedback

    Love the compromise idea. I think that would strike up a good balance for everyone, while still reminding people that there is no better saving grace than maintaining their own frequent backups as well as the service provider backups

    Which Operating System do you prefer?

    I don't have an all time 'favorite' Operating System, but I have used quite a few. Windows XP - Probably one of my top picks, as it's been pretty reliable, relatively easy to use, and has been a suitable platform for gaming compatibility and performance. Ubuntu - 8.10 was pretty good for...

    Anyone tried Google Chrome?

    Chrome was a lot slower on the sites I spend most of my time on, so I stopped using it a while ago and went back to Firefox.

    xbox all the way. The online play has more going on than the PS3, and does it without frying an egg.

    Tips to Cleanup Your Harddisk

    One tip I think people forget is to keep their files organized. I know I've seen people with multiple copies of a lot of their files on a disk because they forget where they put things. Since keeping multiple copies of something on the same disk is near worthless as a backup strategy, it's...

    Do you believe in God?

    The way I see it, I can not know for certain if there is or is not a God. There are things that certainly could be his work, or could simply be a low probablity event occurring. I do see the utility in God, though, in the fact that in believing in him, many people find themselves able bear...

    Who Here Grabbed Windows 7?

    I've been playing around with 7, and as someone who is a MS certified tech for vista, I've got to say I'm no more impressed with 7 than I am with Vista. I think Microsoft needs to focus on less ritzy stuff and more actual substantive stuff with it. Sadly, I don't see them moving in that...

    Who's been watching Wall Street?

    Right now the situation with the Dow is terrible, and I don't think a lot of people are concerned enough about what it means for them. On the flip side, though, it is somewhat entertaining watching it dive down every time Obama opens his mouth.
