    Windows XP ESET Smart Security 5 + XP 32 bit=Big Problems

    Well-said! But even-if everyone knew it, there'd still be an industry of babysitters. Humans aren't the sharpest sparks in the shed :P I didn't include the "common sense" reference, as it's almost accepted as a misnomer these days. Workplace safety has been trying to kill it off for years. The...

    Windows XP Microsoft Update tried to shove IE8 down my throat this morning..I'm pissed!

    Same thing, reworded, perhaps? Horrible browser, it may be, OPTIONALLY required 1% of the time. So drop the dinosaur OS, or deal with the 1%, or stop chasing every-single-update. I'm trying to be plain-speaking here, without appearing rude. Some people really just need to get outside, or see...

    Will You Upgrade to Windows 8?

    I was referring to my own situation. Mainly why I can't see the need in chasing the "OMG Teh Latest Eva" style bandwagons. I'm not sure what "truth" you refer to. Win7 is viagra for old/low-powered machines. I could FINALLY ditch a decade-old OS, and enjoy all the latest eye-candy, while...

    Windows 7 Games that will work on my laptop

    I still game, often, on a laptop that makes yours look like a WEAPON. If I didn't know the machine well, I'd simply check the date of build (mainly GPU), and choose games from then/before-then. Apart from that, it'll never get tired playing "indie" games, like those sold for a few dollars on...

    Windows XP Microsoft Update tried to shove IE8 down my throat this morning..I'm pissed!

    What's the big deal? I think I use IE for 1% of internet browsing, if that.

    Windows XP ESET Smart Security 5 + XP 32 bit=Big Problems

    I'm a happy customer of ESET for years now, but I'm also someone who didn't keep swimming against the stream. I can understand why they have trouble with OLD software, and machines that are still being punished with it.

    Windows 7 So What Are You Playing Right Now?

    Windows 7 Best Alternative to WMP?

    VLC works like a CHAMP on all but one of my machines (OLD laptop). Trying to play 1080p is simply asking too much. Having said that, Media Player Classic Home Cinema gets it over the line. While it's ugly as sin, it's great for doing what no-other will do.

    Will You Upgrade to Windows 8?

    What's the rush?! My machines have ran like beasts for several years now. So when the demand hasn't changed, the supply shouldn't either.
