Wow I did not expect that to still be worth $200. although from looking at WIP http://windowsitpro.com/window... it used to be something like $6,700 new.
Still that's a cost of $200 a machine to replace them as they quit. I'm sure they could do much better with a new $6,700 laptop today.
I thought I could remember seeing it back on 3.11 I tried to double check using google image search "start 3.11" but I guess those must be screenshots of mods or themes.
You must be sarcastic or you're forgetting about sports blackouts and the extremely common carriage disagreements.
Notably viacom has been dropped by a lot of carriers because they wanted too much money.
big cable has the same exclusivity deals just try and watch a local sports game. Who got rights to air it this time? was it the local cable company A, cable company B, dish or direct tv?
Chose wisely because the next game you want to watch will only be available on one of the other three.
No we are quite certain cable is high because the people running the companies are greedy bastards. No one would stop to think that the licences might be expensive.
But for the same price as your basic cable package you can already pay for several streaming services.
Sure its not live but who cares the cable company wasn't going to let you watch what you wanted anyway and roughly 1/3 of it is advertising which makes cable an even worse deal than it already was.
Verizon wireless has a pretty long history of fking with web traffic let's see... They have used a intercepting proxy to compress images (years ago now) they have (and afaik still are) intercepting all dns traffic on port 53 so you can't use a outside dns server unless you run it over a another port. and most recently they started injecting a tracking code into all outgoing http traffic. Sure they let you opt out of that now but for the better part of a year there was no opt out.
And last there is a account usage analysis option that shows what types of data your line was used for.
That's just what my isp has done so i can easily understand why someone would want to run a vpn just so their connection would function.
Maybe netflix will start offering vpn service so they can verify that i actually am in the united states. Or I suppose i could always setup a vpn to the lan at work i bet netflix wouldn't catch that.

A few years ago I stopped at a gas station that had cranked their pumps down so slow it didn't trigger the auto shutoff.
That was about 10 gallons or so pooled underneath the van.
Maybe if they get some competition they might turn the speed on their pumps back up instead of trying to annoy you into going into the store.

Good price but can I access the storage by ftp?
Can it be accessed by ftp?
I like to think that i've had a lot of laptops apart over the years and I have never seen one that the hdd was not replaceable.
I do see a lot of them with no disc drive nowadays though.
If it was made in the last 10 years i'd like to know the model and who made it so I can be sure and avoid it.
Years ago I seem to remember a torrent site (i want to think it was isohunt) raising about 300K for a new car.
Its been years ago and so many sites have come and gone over the years I can't remember all the names anymore.
Some time after windows 95 was released.

Again sorry my mistake it has been a very long time since ive seen a 3.x system running.
Windows 3.11 did not include a start menu. The other comments are correct that it was not introduced until windows 95.
I thought I could remember seeing it back on 3.11 I tried to double check using google image search "start 3.11" but I guess those must be screenshots of mods or themes.
Sorry about that.
I bet it has something to do with windows 3.11 having an actual start menu.
Otherwise thats a very good question.
Pity that more and more is blocked by robots.txt on archive.org nowdays. I've been contacting site owners asking them to add an exemption but no dice.
So we get ripped on the data prices in the US but we have unlimited texting and thats somehow unusual?
Sounds like the deal with smart phones.
They have yet to make one that also works as a phone.
How? Cortana refuses to speak to me without a Microsoft account.
Some people like to waste cycles on fancy animations to make opening a folder look pretty.
But I'm not one of those people.
Why not make it one year?
That way its ridiculously long and they would at least have to notify you eventually.
what? iirc gmail (for example) keeps deleted email up to one year after it's deleted.
Why does the charger even pass data??
Where do you live that netflix is free?

I'm really not sure if they had siri write this for them or if they are related to SCIgen.
I'm going with SCIgen.
Seems to be a good analogy for what's actually going on.
Not to be confused with WISP or wireless Internet service provider.
Yes. I didn't think of it until a few minutes after I posted.
I'd settle for one that just toasted evenly on both sides...
