Agreed. I cleaned up the aftermath on one of my kid's PCs after a friend of theirs who 'knew stuff' got the system down to where it wouldn't boot anymore. Fortunately, I was able to save the system without a complete re-install. Just wait until my kid gets the invoice....LOL

Hmmm, it always works with my sweetie. I can't even tell about what happened after I set up her PC to Dual-boot with Ubuntu Studio....:)
Ok, this article dredges up the old thread of "If Microsoft made cars" and the barbs cast back and forth about it. Makes me wonder, if the car was made by Microsoft, would the car get the virus directly from the malware flyer?
Isn't it amusing how cranky Dvorak is getting in his old age? This article really shows it. Wonder who pissed in his Cherrios on the morning he was writing it?
We got them Amish here up nort in Indiana, ya. Ya know how hard it is to get a computer to keep working when the wind isn't blowing the windmill? Really hard, ya. Besides, we aren't allowed any of those electric things. It's harder to hack an abacus, now ain't it!

Nope. Definitely the Gungans.
You might as well beat your chest and yell "RTFM N00B".
I always do, but I get funny looks from people walking by my office, and a message from my manager....

I can easily be a disheveled official, checking out Swedish pr0n....:D
Hell Yeah!
I think we can refer to him as C-152 or simply "Aerobat"...heh heh
It turned me into a newt.
I am actually surprised he didn't include his own home as part of the list....
Have no fear, Duke Nukem will be ready to help out by then!

Because it's a "Spider from ISS", and that isn't as catchy as Ziggy's band....but "Ziggy played guitar"
Only if you use Crossover or WINE
Rooooooooxxxxxxxxaaaannnn!!!! Oops, maybe Sting isn't the project lead on this one....
It's somehow amusing to me that when I looked at this article, I noticed that the ad placed at the top of the discussion is for DishTV's services....
I can bring the Hershey's bars and Gram Crackers--mmmmm S'mores!!
