Top Ten Questions About Switching

Imagine a world without the Blue Screen of Death.
Imagine a world where things just WORK.
Imagine never having to play with a config file, or switch settings, or having to reconfig things just to work.
Imagine a world where MS Office works the way it promised, without the security holes you are used to.

I know that Apple isn't perfect, but at least our computers knew the century was going to end.

I am Novell certified. I'm an MCSE. I've forgotten more about Windows than most folks will ever learn. I've worked for some of the biggest names in the business.

And I choose Mac.

Every day we see at least one cry for tech help from Windows users. The Mac users here are a silent minority, mainly because we don't have tech problems, but also because of all the bashing that appears the moment one mentions their choice of a Mac.

The Mac port should be available in 90 days. Which is when yu should be getting your final patches to play it as well.

Once again, thanks for beta-testing things for us.

BTW, if I really want to play it before the 90 days is out, I just need to boot into VPC and run it. You DO know that I can run Win98 on my system, don't you? [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] And quite a bit more stable than most WinTel boxes. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Moni it sounds like your pc must be smashed. And smashed HARD! Start by lifting it over your head and throwing it off the front porch while swearing angrily as loudly as you can. Then use the (prepositioned) sledgehammer to bash it into scrap. Once again this must be done with profanity. Loudly. By this time the neighboers will being watching the spectacle. Cuss out the neighbors. Its THEIR FAULT! Throw some various shattered pieces at them. Stalk back into the house. Turn on The Osbournes and relax....... [img]smile.gif[/img]

LMAO LoA!
Had it been more than just the power supply, that would have been the perfect ending to an overly abused machine such as this one is.
My neighbors already think I'm on the deep end after being seen out in my front yard calling "Sweeeeeetie Pieeeeee!!!"

30.00 got KHaN a new 350W power supply and I took his 300W in trade when we got home with it. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thank you everyone for all your concern and sympathy!
I probable won't look into a whole new system until we get cable access and I realize just what a piece of sh*t this system is.

Davros, your static sound....I'm clueless! Sorry, Sultan Mine!

Ressurection complete, there will be no services beyond the "touchdown toss" of the old power supply box into the garbage.
Maybe Saturday when they pick up the trash we'll wave a sad goodbye, but I doubt it.

*whew*
*sniff*
*sniff*
its so good to be home!!!!

johnny I missed you most of all!
*hugs*

Power supply ? *whew* [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] That's a "good" breakdown, very inexpensive and pretty easy to replace. 300W should be plenty for you. Have you thought about extra fans in there? Keeping things cool in the box is always a good idea.
