HG, thanks for the link above. Because I run virtual machines on my laptop, anything I can do to optimize performance is worth it.
Yanno what I hate about Vista? People who visit threads clearly titled "7 things I hate about Vista", and then whine about the author whining about Vista. In my extremely arrogant, biased opinion, choice is a GOOD thing. Not everyone needs the same thing out of their computer, and hardware specs vary widely. Personally, I'm quite happy that choices in operating systems are beginning to come abo
but I have to point out the irony in this since so many liberal types were so afraid that the Patriot Act meant/means that the government is trampling all over the rights of the citizens. hruh? I'm a LIBERAL now?!? The differences I have with the Democrats is they trust Democrats too much. The differences I have with the Republicans is they trust Republicans too much. I say we need REAL change, which doesn't come from either p

I think what you are requesting is an O/S without the GUI...And, as zubaz says, you are asking for a lot. The Linux from scratch solution would be less than perfect, and as for compatibility issues, well, that comes with the territory. Nothing comes straight off the shelf like what you are seeking. Even if you installed Windows 2000, you would still need to find drivers for your hardware. Good luck, though. Who knows, maybe you can develop it. Then we'll all be saying we rememb

I know you said no linux, but have you looked into Linux from scratch? You might be able to put together something workable with that! Good luck!
may the baby jesus open his mind and refuse him use of his fingers. No, read his latest. Christianity is an excuse to treat everyone you know like garbage because you get a free pass to heaven.
So, Marvin Cooley's evil twin is back in full force, in one breath decrying cults and in the other trying to form a cult himself by proclaiming that only HIS word stands as the word of God, and that everyone else, even Christ Himself, is suspect in their teaching. He believes that Christians do not need to lead a good life. That they can do whatever they want and treat other people like garbage, and that they will get to heaven, and God will smile and say it's all good. But the phrase
Funny thing about Vista... I have a fellow willing to trade me his copy of Vista Ultimate for my Windows XP with the key. I have to admit, I'm seriously considering it, even though I'll have to double my RAM to do what I want...
Wow, 5 pounds. That's half a percent off of that half ton frame! God, Marcie, you are the pitiful one, with your compulsive need to respond despite the fact I have made it patently clear I don't WANT you here. Did you miss the part about my updating people on my personal life or is your education that pathetic? How the hell do you teach kids, when your own reading comprehension is so pathetic?
OK, bitch, it's on. You were warned. First of all, you have asked me to stay off your blog and I have thus far respected that. I had no problem with your initial comment, which was why it was accompanied by the warning, as you were simply responding to the fact that you were mentioned in the comments. However, you were not a substantial part of the article, it was not about you, and it most definitely did not flame you. I am tired of putting up with your serious menta
did these people complain about xp when it was released? Not if they had ME first, they didn't...lol! One of the biggest problems I have seen with Vista has nothing to do with Vista and everything to do with OEMs. And that is the fact that so many PC's are being shipped with hardware specs that meet the bare minimum requirements, in which case, Vista will be a guaranteed dog! Is Vista good? Is Vista bad? The question can be yes or no d
I offer several examples that contradict this and you say "They are not REALLY Liberals." No I didn't say that, but, see it as you will. Did you prove that the majority of liberals do are better businesspeople, Larry? Sorry, you didn't. You provided several examples, but a small number overall of liberal businesspeople. And no, it wasn't a slip. Conservatives entrusted with other people's money do a better job spending that money. Lib
Wow. I thought reading comprehension was a required subject for teachers. I said this comment was made some time ago but I didn't reply then because my comment would have been rather rude. But the truth is, you DID pretty bluntly make a comparison between my work history and ziggy's, Marcie. Now, you can choose to do one of two things: recognize this is my blog and let it die, or keep at it, in which case I have zero problem telling you exactly what I think of you. It
I would argue first and foremost that not all self branded conservatives are so. Frankly, I can think of very few Republicans that fill the bill. And yes, Kuperman, as you've noted, there are some liberals that don't fill the bill either. But there are exceptions to every rule. And even in the spending habits of messr's Gates, Allen, and others, you'll find a spending approach that is relatively conservative. Do I really need to state the obvious in that we're talking about FISCAL conse
Bingo, LW. The spousal unit. I would have responded when it was said, but my response would have been far less than kind.
why you feel that way is beyond me. simple, kingbee. Please point me to someone who espouses liberal programs who pushes for efficiency. While such people DO exist, they are generally pushed to the fringe, and, when they exist in the Democratic Party, derided as DINO's. I have not yet met a single liberal politician who has seen the tax base as anbything other then a large money pool into which they can dip at leisure, drawing more mon
This has been an article I've long had floating around in my head, in response to one JU regular's quite ignorant accusation that I have the run of "bad luck" with jobs that they have with theirs. I haven't updated people on my personal life lately, because, frankly, I have been more than a little tired of some of the games for some time, but here goes: When I started on JoeUser, I had just left the mine. The mine had never been my idea of a permanent job. I was working at the time in
None of my posts are deleted, only hidden, until this blows over, then we can go right on .... beating each other with the talking stick..no? No, aeryck, I don't appreciate your approach. Either you want dialog or you don't. If you bury every article as soon as controversy arises, you obviously don't...and as a gentleman, I intend to oblige you.
Now if you wanted to play footsie footsie with me you should have just come out straight and said it. Aeryck, If you hadn't deleted comments willy nilly, he MIGHT have kept it on your blog!
You might not be affiliated with the LDS church anymore, Gid, but you know how to speak like a Mormon still. LOL! Some habits die hard!
(sigh) I took the bait. Thought I wuz gonna get to do me some Mormon bashing today. LOL! Dang you, SC, dang you all to heck! Why'd you go and spoil my fun? Anyway, yeah, I avoid said blogger's articles usually for that very reason.
I want that bumper sticker! LOL!
So I wish on this day to thank all the COs, whose conscience would not allow them to pick up a rifle but whose patriotism would not allow them to sit and watch, for their service and support. For the record, my position has always been that in time of war I would proudly serve in a noncombat position.
I have no problem with recognizing or even honoring CO's. When I registered with the Selective Service, I registered as a CO, and I do not regret it for a second. But not on Veteran's Day. While I personally am a committed non aggressivist (I am not a pacifist, because I assure you that if my nation or family were directly threatened, I would not hesitate to pick up a gun and shoot you where you stand!), I highly respect and honor the service of our veterans. And I think it is appalling
Wow! You have a very high-lying poverty line in the US. Why not call it something else? US$12/hour has nothing to do with poverty. US$12/hour is wealth unimagineable to all but the richest 20% of the world's population. THANK YOU, Leauki. Now you see why we're so up in arms about the government definition of poverty. America's "poor" have big screen TV's, high speed Internet access, cable TV....creature comforts that many in the world w
