Dude..the machine has a 10 Mhz CPU and 640 K of RAM. It runs an old MS-DOS. It won't run 3.11, let alone XP. This is an assumption, as I don't feel like splitting up an XP install CD into a few hundred 720 K floppies and giving it a whirl. Come to think of it, XP is larger than the available memory. Too bad. I just wanted to try something new. PicoBSD didn't even fit.
If I gave two shits about karma I would have replied as AC or with another account. You know that - it's what you do, remember? Besides, my parents don't have a basement. I'm stuck in their attic.
Stupid AC bitch. Offtopic I can accept. I didn't say I was modded offtopic. I was hit with the invincible Overrated. Now, an unmodded post ought not be considered Overrated, as it is not yet rated.
Notice the answer to my question was actually posted - and I thanked that person. I had a serious question. I needed an OS for a crappy computer. I asked that question, and was given an answer.
Sadly, some pole-smoking fucknuggets decided to smack this thread. What the fuck is wrong with you people? Do you not understand English? I'll get you a tutor. Are you bitter? I'll buy you some sugar. Are you lonely? I'll find you some hookers. Shit, it is probably for the best that you assramming unclefuckers are incapable of rational discourse - I'd hate to see the next generation of Slashbots programmed by the likes of you. Keep reading the Mass and skimming the collection plate. If you ask nicely I might let you smell my soiled boxers.
I tried and tried to make the "hew" work. I thought about trees that screamed when you cut them and about blisters that split and leaked. No dice. The point you made remains valid, of course.
Well, it crosses my mind every so often (and I can't say that I disagree with the sentiment). I run a website that sees a decent amount of traffic, and I'd like to link to you. In order to do that I would serve your graphic (xray_top.jpg) from my server with a link and a blurb. Is that acceptable?
I looked, and looked, and I didn't see the part where he said "I'm sorry I ever led anyone to believe that a piece of software that could be replicated by anyone* was worth billions of dollars in stock"
*in the sense of programmers willing to work together
Why should some TA be able to decide my value as a student? "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal" Grades divide us. As a nation, as a planet, as a people, we need to embrace each other. Perhaps even nuzzle each other playfully.
That's weak. That's like me taking what I want from a store and saying "but I had to buy a car and gas, drive over here, and spend a half-hour looking for what I wanted" when they complain that you didn't pay.
I can spend all the money I want on, say, chewing tobacco. That doesn't mean I shouldn't pay for my car repairs.
It has been estimated that 90% of the processing power of most computers is underutilized. How ironic that this statistic parallels our own brain power!

Shut the fuck up.
Thanks.

Hell yes!. Thank you.
What kind of pussy hits an unmoderated post with OVERRATED!!!!!!!
And then the lameness filter had to spew a bunch of crap.
Goddamnit, you are some weakass motherfuckers.
Protect that karma, mod boy.
Hoard it, and use it for a down payment on something nice.
I can't get Linux to install. Goddamit, I feel cheated. I hate running DOS. Any of ya'll know of an OS that'll run on these specs?
Bullshit, boy. I'm finding an average price of $200 on drives with those specs. Gimmie a link and I'll buy 2.
NAV 2000 corporate (which wont let me turn it off btw)
Sure you can.
Go to the taskbar
right-click the NAV shield icon
left-click Open Norton AntiVirus...
Uncheck the Load Norton AntiVirus Services box.
Click Exit.
It's unloaded.

Hue and cry.
I remember this...
I looked, and looked, and I didn't see the part where I said "the Netscape browser is / was worthless*"
*in the sense of all Netscape software, considered together

I quoted your sig the other night.

There's a sig around here that I really, really get a kick out of: Information wants to be anthropomorphized
Amish are the ones sending the virus, so they don't have to delete any files. How to send? How about a postcard?
