Reply to Intel exec fears for U.S. competitiveness in WinCustomize News WinCustomize Forums

Umm, its not that they "Expect" 40-50K a year starting out, its pretty much a requirement. I mean thats about the least amount someone can make around here and "Survive". I'm still quite shocked that people think 40-50k a year is "Great Money". That is in no way a requirement. People survive on a lot l

Of course people want to get rich, its the American Dream. But I think its unfair to say they all exit college with the idea they want to get rich quick - I don't believe that is true for a minute. Most people I know, after college expect a reasonable wage - thats a pretty relative term, but I think in general, 50-55K a year min

Reply to Byrd, A Bigot for all Seasons in Politics JoeUser Forums

Can you just imagine if a Republican made a comment like this. The media would have non-stop coverage of it, but since he's a liberal democrat, he gets a pass.

Reply to DesktopX 3 Beta Reports in Beta WinCustomize Forums

Is there a way to get DX Builder to load on boot instead of the client? I just put a shortcut from the DesktopX folder to the startup programs list.

Reply to DesktopX 3 Beta Reports in Beta WinCustomize Forums

I have been trying it out since this morning. I just want to first say the interface is great. Much more user friendly. The only "problem" I have run into so far is when I started DesktopX, there were multiple identical tray icons. They were just the "standard" desktopx tray icons, but there were about three. I reloaded desktopx and it appears to be working normally now with just the one tray icon. I have been taking some of my ob

Reply to $675 Billion Deficit if FY 2005 in Politics JoeUser Forums

We can not make the tax cut perminant and must reverse the tax cuts for the wealthy ASAP. Why should just the "rich" get their taxes raised? If you raise taxes on them, you should raise them for everybody else. Class warfare at it's best.

Reply to The Real reason liberals hate bush in Politics JoeUser Forums

He doesn't play the "victim" game. To too many liberals, victim = respect. Prs. Bush doesn't wallow in national self pity, he calls for us to rise above. He doesn't hang his head when things go bad, he pushes on until things get better. He doesn't pat us all on the head saying, "There, there, I know you can't make it on your own,

Reply to What's So Bad About George W. Bush? in Politics JoeUser Forums

Finally, Mr B. is much more dangerous to the whole world (including the American people) because he has the media to convince his own that his crimes are a divine mission. Bush does not the media on his side. Quite the opposite really. The media in the U.S. is getting about as bad as al-jazeera is.<B

Reply to France was never a friend of the US in The Media JoeUser Forums

What I find most interesting is how poeple, mostly on the left, worry so much about what the French think of us. That is one of their best lines, "Look at what Bush did, he made the french hate us."

That's the one thing I didn't think of. I was trying to find a specific file in the openoffice folder, but it works differently than other programs. I did what you said and it works. Thanks for the help.

Reply to ***Which is Better ObjectDesktop or Wincustomize*** in Community WinCustomize Forums

What other software would you recommend that is out there that has the same Quality and detail that Deskobject has? None that I know of. I have never regretted subscribing to Wincustomize or OjectDesktop. They are both great values and I will definitely renew when the time comes. <img src="

I have been using Openoffice and I have a question. On my dock I have a shortcut to openoffice, but it only opens the general interface, then I have to select text document, spreadsheet, etc. Does anybody know a way to directly link to open the text editor?

Reply to iTunes and Pepsi Promo: Watch out! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

It's an itunes promotion so why is it surprising that you have to install itunes to get your song. I have used iTunes for a while now, and I have gotten songs from this promotion. Aside from the cost of the drink, this is totally free.
