Well, Greg, if you have to come to slashdot to ask lame questions about pc parts. I would suggest gettin yourself a Dell "dude!". Either get a backbone and do it yourself or go buy one, but dont waste are freakin time with ignorance. I can the next story from you in a few weeks being... "OK, I've ordered a motherboard, cpu , harddrive, case, powersupply, etc... But I'm unfamiliar with how to put all these things together.."
Ok, grab these things, a baseball, a straw, some paper and a friend. Go outside.... Make a nice spitball/dart with the paper. Insert it into the straw. Have your friend backup and pitch the baseball as hard and fast as he/she can straight into your face:) Now quickly, attempt to hit the baseball with the spitball before it gets to close to your face.
Being that you were their oldest customer on record they didn't want to lose you...
This has been going on for years!!! Major ISP's have always been a painintheass when you try to cancel your service. Especially if you just got done using your free hours, which, IMO is the only reasonable excuse for a tech savvy person to use AOL.
Um.... maybe you're just a little bit sexist in assuming that is the meaning of the word when used in that context. Pussy also means cat, you know. Kitten's and cat's have always been associated with weakness and cowardice, i.e. "scaredy-cat".
Oh! I thought we were talking about the Boy Scouts of America all along! Now I have to go find my son (Wolf scout) and find out why he's been auditing the software on our home PC and extorting me for $$$!!!!
... upon examining Limbaugh's brain the court found "no conveyance of ideas, expression, or anything else that could possibly amount to intelligence. The court finds that Limbaugh has more in common with a bowl of Jell-O than than he does with a US Distric Court Judge..."
When I'm faced with "coders block" I high-tail it out of the office jump in my VW Passat. Light up a cigarette, turn up the stereo and drive.... On truly productive days I do this 2-3 times a day. The tricky part is getting back to the office in one piece and without a speeding ticket once the solution comes to mind...:)
I know the EFF had good intentions when responing to Vivendi's lawyers claims. They obviously were trying to nip this in the bud and get the bnetd folks out of a law suit. However, pointing out the weaknesses in Vivendi's DMCA claims have now created a Traditionl copyright case. Wouldn't it have been great if they actually went with the DMCA claims and bnetd was triumphant? Although, I guess if bnetd by some reason had lost the case, would have given more power to the DMCA. Still it seems that Blizzard does not have a leg to stand (just a big pile of $$$$) on with their latest claims.
Duh, of course I'm exaggerating... But seriously, going to a full-time job at the age of 12 is going to seriously screw someone up. Especially in this industry.

Funny/Scary how the terrorists gave the US a reason to invade Afganistan at such an opportune time isn't it?
Yes, and don't forget the people throwing rocks at those that have guns...
Talk about intolerance and violence....
