I would be honered to be your neighbor FP. You should have "Paker" hook you up, if he's in town again.

A new computer is just as exciting as a new car- it starts reliably and goes faster than the last one.



Cool you.

All PC's come programmed to piss you off at least once a week.
I think it is Bill Gates way of getting a laugh.

I wanta know "what ya got"????

Laptop, desktop, Windows 7 or 8, what, what, what?????

Most setups are pretty much...plug in, make sure cables are in right place, turn on.

Hope you got a copy of all your bookmarks and email addresses?

If you don't have Comcast......might be something you should consider, the tech service for hookups and email problems is very good.

jmo

Have a good day.........you've only come 10,000 miles, compter wise, in the past 15 years.......from the old days of Techline dialup.....

Sorry FP, I'd gladly help, but I don't think I'll be down that way for a while. Nothing planned down there, as of now.

This also reminded me that I still need to pay you for that awesome clam gun. Text me your mailing address and I'll get that check down to you ASAP!

Windows 8 is not a cluster fuk...if you treat your PC like a smart phone and use the search feature within the Start window.

It's more of legacy PC users are afraid of change. Fear change. Change is bad.

Legacy PC users must be republicans. wink

I'm not going to argue about computers with you, hell you've forgotten more than I know about them. I guess I was trying to say it takes a while to get the hang of it. You think it's a good product?

What do you mean by treat it like a smart phone? Hell....I still have a flip phone. eek

computers will walk you through using them all from the start menu...

you can run them like a champ, or screw them up beyond belief, all through one little portal....

the only OS from MS that i thought was a sh!t one, was Vista, other than that, all newer OS's (newer than XP Pro), work great once you get them down, and its not hard to do so....
