  1. Re:Released to public after delay? on Windows 7 Beta Released To Public After Delay · · Score: 1

    Amusingly, as long as you get a key (and assuming the pirate bay .iso you get isn't some virus-laden hack job) the torrent method will be faster.

    AND assuming you're not on Comcast (or any ISP) that sends torrent reset packets. :(

  2. Re:Downloading now on Windows 7 Beta Released To Public After Delay · · Score: 1

    The download requires the use of some activeX control. Firefox didn't do anything (no surprise there), nor did the 64-bit version of IE. I got it to work on my third try with the 32-bit version of IE.

    No, that's just sick. :-D

  4. Re:Are they nuts? on 18% of Consumers Can't Tell HD From SD · · Score: 2, Interesting

    While the opposite is also true: some of the lower priced "cheaper" antennas actually work better than the higher priced ones. It depends on your location, and where the anntenna is installed relative to other large objects inside your house that may be blocking the signal or causing a great interference pattern due to reflections.

    WTF is your problem?

    No reason to fix what isn't broke.

    Oh it's broke. You just don't know.

  7. Isn't this old news? on LifeLock Spokesperson's Stolen ID Inspires Lawsuits · · Score: 5, Informative

    Isn't this old news? I thought I read about this months ago.

  8. Re:Windows Me on The Death of Windows XP · · Score: 1

    I remember using Windows ME -- it lasted for all of a month before Explorer decided to run incredibly slow. I had NAV installed and always kept it up-to-date.
