Ah yes....I also have fond memories of doing an MS Small Business Server 4.5 install (based on NT 4) on a Compaq Proliant 6500 and getting 3/4 of the way into it only to find out there's a bug in the install.
For those not familiar...the install was a stringing together of each product's setup program passing install parameters along to try and automate the process.
Wow. What a pain in the ass.
Of course, by this time I've forgetten the exact error. I just remember burning DAYS trying to get that F&CKING install to work.
Why would documents, music, video...etc add anything to an upgrade process? Shouldn't be system files and drivers that are affected? What exactly is done with a document or a music file that would require touching during an OS upgrade?
is it just me, or does anyone else have a mental image of Barney Fife cocking his hat, scratching his head trying to cobble together a SQL select statement?
"Gee Andy....How do you create an Inner Join again?"
Sure they did.
That's why when they ransom the boats, as soon as they get paid they hire someone to clean up the problems....right?
I'm sure it had NOTHING at all with a profit motive and the fact they are dirt poor.
Step 1: To the coast of Somalia and let the pirates seize the ship.
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit!!!
Problem solved
For geeks in general?
Not from where I sit (downwind).
Sorry....so do I. DOS 6.0 and Windows 3.1 on 5.25 floppies.
I still have the computer (486 Zeos) with the drive too.
Still boots.
Booya!

Wow, did your girlfriend get woo'ed away by a Jarhead? Why so hostile to dudes with buzz cuts?
Not if they found a way to harvest the hair sweaters that some of the dudes I saw at the beach sporting.
Watch out Marty....the Flux capacitor is at full capacity and a Smurf attack is imminent!
The smell I was referencing was more in the sulfurous range of smells, not flowery. ;-)
So how long before they "Smell Mark' the resulting smell?
to run an On/Off button to the Oval Office?
This way he can take down the Internet to save us all.
Change YOU can believe in.....

Assuming there was a body left.
I watched Le Femme Nikkita...
Uh huh....well everyone seems to be missing the obvious reason he went off....he took a long hard look at his career choice and snapped.
too much caffine that morning?
WHOOOSH!

So what you're saying is....the article poster is evil for withholding vital information?
What if your dog tells you to do something....like kill people?
Are you evil or is the dog?
How nice of you to notice.
Companies don't spend money unless they have a good reason to.
Credit and background checks are not free.
WHOOSH!
I think they were making a joke.
So it was you who gave them my SS#!
You insensative Clod!
Yeah, because that's what I want to do....give bees a good reason to hang out in my backyard.
