I was talking to HOLDUM333 yesterday, on an open thread on a Win7 help issue, and we got to talking about the old days of computer stuff, and he's even older than I am--starting to feel like a fossil now that I'm retired! :bigtongue:
So, he suggested we talk about that stuff here in the Water...
Being older than some rocks, I get up often at night. When I got up at 1:00, I turned on the computer. Nothing. I checked Windows Update and was shocked when it asked if I were ready. That would have been 1:15 and by 1:45 I had Windows 10. The downloading and installation was automatic. My only...
Since Windows 8, the newer Microsoft OS's have been designed with touchscreen capabilities in mind. This led to the diminished functionality of the classically recognizable Start menu. Earlier versions of Windows 8 didn't use a start menu, that bottom-left based pop-up menu that Windows users...

Hi there, I'm just a person that happened to find and buy this mug on Ebay.
I tried doing some research, trying to figure out it's origins, but I didn't get too far. I'm wondering if anyone here can help me out with this, or point me in the right direction. Sorry if the images are flipped...

I have had Windows 8.1 on my tower for about a 2 months now.
Am just getting tired of how controlling it is.
I made comments in the past as to how good it was. I was being optimistic.
Just missing all the good stuff in Windows 7. I don't care if I have to do ALL those updates. I want...
A lovelorn pensioner has distributed 10,000 leaflets in a bid to find an old flame who he wants to leave all his money to when he dies – despite not speaking to her for 55 years.
Herbert Riley, 83, fell in love with Reeni when she was just 20-years-old and he was 24.
The pair met at a dance hall...

Our parlor wanted papering,
And Pa says it was waste
To call a paperhanger in,
And so he made some paste.
He bought some rolls of paper,
Got a ladder and a brush
And with my mummy's nightgown on,
At it he made a rush.
When Father papered the parlour
You couldn't see him...
