I used to use ms outlook, but the install was messed up somehow (bad memory?)... and I had to install office in a virtual machine to get my notes back.. exported them and I now read and edit them using notepad. It's easy and reliable.
Sure, I should patch up that memory but I don't have too many problems with my computer.
Make your cold backup drive firewire if you want to simply plug it into another system to access your data.
Very critical data (in small quantities) gets quad redundancy- desktop, laptop, firewire drive, and usb keychain.
I tried to go a week without my data and facilitate public school classes at the same time... never again! I now have a 250gig firewire drive, confident that the chances of my laptop and desktop failing at the same time are relatively slim. The next step would be off site backup...
That was a/. joke, in case you're new here. Anyway, one of the funniest things to me is when I hand someone my camera for a group picture or whatnot. The same thing happens every time - the photographer of the moment steps about 10ft away and then asks where the zoom is and how to use it.
If there was ever a reason to have flash, it would be Homestar Runner.
Also, some people such as composer Eric Whitacre use it to give the site a "mood" of sorts, and navigation is still decent (my mouse wheel works, and copy/paste have been implemented). Yes, I'd rather be romping about with my tabs but, I'll live.
Right now I am eating pizza. I don't exercise enough and I am too fat, and at this rate I will die of heart disease by about age 38. I'm also drinking coke.
So if in the future I could eat anything I wanted, never exercise, and still have perfect nutrition and physique... what will become of the world?
A bunch of really hot, lazy, horny, well fed people having a good time? Sounds like heaven...
Around here Domino's likes to coat the thin crust pies with oregano. I don't mind a little bit, but I like a touch of oregano on my pizza - not a touch of pizza with my oregano! Seriously, there have been times when I couldn't see the actual pizza under the oregano.
My old favorite, Santora's->Sedano's has been bought out by another local and now they make it "their way"... I fear I may never taste the original stuff again. Sorry about all the rambling.
No matter what the proof, don't we still have to accept blindly on faith that A=A?
Sure, it seems highly probable but.. I just.. I guess I'm a skeptic. All of logic seems like a joke to me, as long as this one little potentially huge loophole looms in the background...
I do enjoy being in control of my vehicle, but I would just as much appreciate the safety of computer control.
It would be cool if I could control the speed and steering but the computer would not allow me to drive off the road... so I could still have a blast highballing through the hills of ohio on a sunday afternoon, but also be auto-driven back from the bars on friday (or thursday.. or wednesday... or...... tuesday....) night.
I am a trumpet player and I really want to hear this thing!
Imagine if typing was so challenging that you spent 90% of your computer time refining and keeping your typing skills adequate, so you could spend 10% of the time programming...
There is a similiar situation with music education - people think their studies will be about children and playing instruments and whatnot. However, everyone is required to have an extensive background in music theory and aural skills.
Even though you could absolutely facilitate music education without knowing much theory or having a "good ear," developing that knowledge and skills will help you guide children in the earlier stages of musical development, even if you never actually use any of the advanced skills you developed in college.
It actually seems kinda strange - even though I now have extensive skills and knowledge, the manner in which I interact musically with people will actually have to be in such a way as if I did not have these skills or knowledge, because that is how students will relate to me musically.

I actually do use notepad, you insensitive clod!

You meant... TRIP!
So.. yes this is offtopic, but not really if you consider the topic word processes...
Anyway, when do we get OpenOffice native on Mac OS X, again?
My camera has no zoom, and I have no legs!

My new favorite pizza is Courtside.

Pretty simple... iCal.
Thank you, Apple.

What's even funnier (to me, in a bad way) is that I live in a society where it is thought that one cannot live without a house or apartment.

Oh, did I mention the mozdev googlebar doesn't work on firefox?
And no, being able type words in and have a google search done on them does not count as all the functionality of the googlebar.
Anyone notice how the in flight entertainment system *must* be off for takeoff and landing?
Is this some legal fluff or is it because they need the horsepower for autopilot!?

Anyone have any sound clips?
Anyone know how uranium is mined and refined?
I would imagine it is not the cleanest process.
Schools should be at liberty to spend what is necessary to bring the classes up to exceptional levels.
I have two words for you: lowest bidder.
