Ditto. People still laugh at me for still using a VCR from dotcom days and 20" CRT TV from 1996. They both still work and are reliable compared to DVRs, computers, etc. Also, I don't need to worry about stupid DRM, cabling, subscriptions for DVRs, etc. Now, those DTV converter boxes (DTV Pal) and DVRs (DTV Pal Plus) I used SUCK (very buggy and unsupported).:(
I remember on my roommates' old PowerMacs with old Mac OS (not X), they had programs that showed how much was in the trash can, but with a liquid state. I would love to see that today in all OS' including Windows. Do they exist?
Wow, how annoying. I was going to get KVM with DVI and USB, but geez so expensive for the last few years and these days. Frak that! I noticed my newest Intel i970 motherboard only has PS2 port for keyboard, but not the mouse (USB only). Ugh.
What about those who send e-mails from their e-mail clients like Outlook? I send a lot of e-mails from my home PCs that use port 25 (SMTP) from Mozilla's SeaMonkey mail client. I don't like webmails.
My longest uptime for any desktop PCs was my RedHat Linux 7.x that had about 227 days of uptime. It was outdated and never got updaters.
Earlier today, I had to reboot my old Debian box with its 28 days of uptime because it didn't like my old Omni Cube KVM (PS2 and VGA) swap/switch (old one had problems). Keyboard was working, but mouse cursor was frozen in both console and X (X wasn't responding either). Windows XP Pro. SP3 didn't complain! Has anyone had this problem before?:(

I wonder if the penalty would be higher with this game due to financial companies. ;)
Pumpkins??? Oooh, I could easily make them as pies. I love pumpkin pies. ;)
SG:A wasn't that good. SG1 was good.
Same for my area. It doesn't show my cable ISP. Sheesh.
And use the white duck? :)
I like to watch you suffer. :)
"Steam, with it's billion dollars a year in sales ..."
No apostrophe. :)
Way out of my budget. :( Any cheaper ones?
How much are those rack ones? Those USB and DVI ones are expensive even for consumer ones! :(
Ah OK. I remember some ISPs block relays too so I thought that was related.

KVMs are cool, but not reliable. :(
Yeah, but not all e-mail servers/services have that port. :(

How come my city had FIOS for a couple years, but not in my neighborhood or big hill? Obviously, no DSL due to 20K ft. :(
