Only isn't what's happening at all. You can read still the.doc they send you without any issues. You can even create a.doc on your computer and upload it to Docs and send it to someone. You just won't be able to take a file on Docs and then save it to your computer as a.doc which admittedly there are uses for but they're definitely a minority.
Never seen it do anything like this and I've been using it for several years now. Always asks before deleting anything (even the occasional keygen I have on the machine) and it never deletes a whole folder just the offending file.
Only you failed to read the part where this is comparing 1024x768 to 1366x768...and that wasn't even the summary it was the damn title. Come on guys! The point here is really that the baseline resolution for cheap laptop panels went up a bit. Sure you didn't get anymore height but you certainly did get more pixels and you didn't lose anything in the process so just shut up and be happy.
That is a good point but it may not feel nice and comfy if 300A flows through your thumb to get from the hot prong you're touching to the ground prong. I was referring more to a solution of the exact opposite nature. Rather than having a extra long connector have a very short prong or even just a flat conductor on the surface of the plug that has to make contact with the receptacle before any current flows through the main circuit.
You simply need to include a low voltage "handshake" type setup in the charging circuit and then only start the high power transfer once the plug is fully engaged. This shouldn't be too hard to implement for even a mildly clever engineer totally removes that risk.
I'm not sure which school you're at but at my local university we've been using Blackboard on IE9 just fine since IE9 was in beta. Seems like if you have a version of Blackboard so old it can't handle that you probably need the kick in the pants anyway.
The 3cm mentioned in the summary = ~1in which is probably where they got the idea. Although anyone measuring something useful probably isn't using inches anyway.
I'm liking FF4 so far. I was using Chrome but they never fixed my endless "Sending request" bug, no matter how many times I and others reported it, so I'm giving up on them for now.
Open your proxy settings and uncheck "Automatically detect settings" and your "Sending request" bug will be gone.
You really should have tried at least reading the summary. Cold calling competitors is exactly what Google had an agreement with these companies NOT to do. The justice department is forcing them to dissolve that agreement out of the notion that it is hurting the employees to not receive these cold calls. Next time try listening a little before opening your mouth.
My apologies. I had never tried to pile my icons like that anywhere other than the desktop. It appears you are correct that it is a problem in other folders. As far as the align to grid vs auto arrange question you'll find that auto arrange overrides align to grid but if you un-check that and keep align to grid checked (which is enabled by default in w7) then you can move the icons to other parts of the screen but they can't overlap which is what I expect you meant by piling them. So both need to be unchecked to do what you want.
It sounds like what your looking to turn off is "Align to Grid" rather than auto arrange. The option to turn this off is found in the same location. Just right click and expand the "View" options and you'll see it.
If you don't like auto arrange you simply have to right click and hover over View to see the option. I know that takes about 1 second longer that it did in xp and it must be hard but I would think you would have at least looked at little for it if it bothered you so much
Well I can tell you it certainly doesn't end well on the windows side either if you choose to click "Set as Desktop Background" instead of the "Open With" option that lives right below. It ate right through all my glorious 8 gigs of memory and pegged my i7 for a good minute before I could kill explorer. I would not recommend it in the future...
Ok so I appologize about the display driver part, I just guessed that cause I know a lot of people do it. And I am aware of the reviews but it depends on the game. I play America's Army, Halo, CS, and FEAR the most. They all show very similar or slightly higher fps. I know some games are still slower though. Also the last driver version I installed (101.41 from Nvidia) was the first to show that kind of performance which is another reason I brought that up. It does go to show though that when newer drivers are released it could get even better. The last part I am sticking to though since I just re-installed on a new hard disk about 3 days ago and I just checked the size of the windows folder and found it to be 7.6GB. If you add in the User folders before adding my junk to them that puts you almost right at 8GB.
Ok to start out I'm not going to try and say Vista is perfect but there are plenty of things to complain about without making them up. I wish people who didn't know what they were talking about would stop attacking Vista because they don't understand what is going on.
After running my own tests, I found most 3D-accelerated games run around 20-30% slower under Vista than XP. XP takes about 2GB of hard drive space, Vista takes over 12GB. I have 2GB of ram, but Vista uses about half of it without any apps running at all!!.
Furthermore everytime you do almost anything in Vista it keeps popping up this REALLY annoying dialog box asking for your permission to do what you just asked. That get old really fast.
JustNiz First of all he probably didn't bother installing a display driver(cause he sounds like that kind of person) and because my games play excellent on Vista usually with the same or up to 10% better frame rate than xp. Also Vista takes just under 8GB for a full install of the Ultimate version which contains all of the features from all the other versions combined. And as for the ram usage that is just Vista doing it's job. It will quietly build a profile on what you use over time and then when you start your computer it will load files based on this profile so that your apps will launch quicker and everything runs smoother. However if you launch something else the other stuff is immediatly overwritten and you lose no performance. And finally for the 100,000 or so of you complaining about UAC, look it serves a purpose for many people and if you aren't one of them JUST TURN IT OFF!!! Now will somebody please complain about something in Vista that really doesn't work so I can agree with them and not look like an M$ fanboy here.

Ok guys I know this has probably been said a hundred times already but why don't you really think about it. Why is this a big deal? You go on Ebay, you bid on something. You then win it or not, nobody is holding a gun to your head making you bid more till you get it. SO WHAT IF THE SELLER UPS THE PRICE YOU DON'T HAVE TO PAY IT. You only pay what you want for the item! It is ridiculous to even call this fraud and you should all grow up and think for yourselves.

Simple. Just make it a "feature" of Windows 8 :)
