    They have girlfriends? Prove it please.

    If they did have girlfriends, then I wasn't playing and these lonely girls could have taken me. :P

  13. Re:Ergonomic 'Split' Keyboards! :D on Stop Trying To 'Innovate' Keyboards, You're Just Making Them Worse · · Score: 1

    Ugh(l(y/ee). I hate those split keyboards. My small hands, with four/4 fingers and born with no thumbs, do not work with them. With non-split keyboards, I hate it when they move keys around like insert, home, page up and down, delete, and end keys to vertical layout. I think this was a new USB Lenovo keyboard I got last year. I gave it away IIRC since I kept pressing the wrong keys!! Also, give me clicky keyboards like Model M.

  14. Re:EOL installation media on Microsoft Quietly Fixes Windows XP Resource Hog Problem · · Score: 1

    I agree, but you can make your own slipstreamed version. Or better, a net-install that have the latest updates for people with fast network connections.

    It's my cozy home like right now. :P

  18. M$ should charge a lot for those who wants XP. on 95% of ATMs Worldwide Are Still Using Windows XP · · Score: 1

    Since some people don't want to leave XP and still want support, M$ should just charge very high prices to those users. Banks and other companies are rich. They can afford it. M$ would have another way/source to be rich! ;)

  19. Re:Here's hoping... on Winamp Purchased By Radionomy · · Score: 1

    Ditto. I love it plugins, addons, etc.

  20. Re:Choice of providers? on Federal Court Kills Net Neutrality, Says FCC Lacks Authority. · · Score: 1

    My cities are like yours. DSL is too far (20+K ft.), Verizon doesn't service FIOS in the neighborhoods but does down the hills, 28800 speed with lots of line noises (since GTE days), etc. IDSL existed but 144 Kb/sec both ways for 100+ bucks a month? Cable rules in these areas though. :(
