Comment Make it look exctly like Windows XP. (Score 1) 1154

Make it so that any windows user wouldn't know they weren't on Windows other than the missing Windows icon in the start button. Integrate Wine so it is seemless.

Make it so if I know how to use Windows, I can know how to use a Linux desktop.

There will need to be a classic mode for those like me who prefer the clean classic Windows 98 desktop, as well as one for those that like the Aero Glass or whatever that pretty mode is. (I don't like pretty mode, when I want to see the window behind my primary, I'll give it focus! I don't need to watch my window minimize, just get it out of my way!)

If you want to switch a desktop user, make it so the user doesn't have to know they switched.

Comment Is the telephone wiring Cat-5? (Score 1) 300

If the wiring is already Cat5, then you should be good to swap out the proprietary boxes and find the other end for the router/network closet.
If they are really telephone-grade wires, find the other ends and pull Cat5 through (by tying string/cat5 to the existing wiring.)

Whatever the right thing is, do it right the first time and the hotel will save money either fixing it or dealing with unhappy guests. It may cost more initially. Really unhappy guests don't return.

Comment Re:As a Wii Owner (Score 1) 258

It is also more toddler friendly. No more scratched disks! Also back-up those games that don't let you back them up so your perfect Mario Cart Wii 3 starred mirror cups don't suddenly go poof while you have your back turned for a second.

Why isn't there better security on the "delete" features of games? (or better hidden?) Some games make deleting a save just as easy as loading it! I'm looking at you Rabbids go home.

Overrated is not a moderation for "I disagree with this."

Somebody wanted to bury this since I have at the time of this post 30% Funny 70% Overrated.

If this gets moderated in the same way, I'm going to take this as a sign that this is something valid but being suppressed. If you disagree with this, reply as such and your reasoning why.

My proof this works:
I gave a jar to my dad recently. He started taking a little bit each day. During the time he was taking the colloidal silver, his wife got ill. My dad normally gets ill when others around him get ill, but this time, he stayed healthy.

Something else I wanted to mention, larger organism (mammals, fish, plants, multicellular things) use a different method of processing their oxygen which makes Colloidal Silver safe for them.

Repost:
Go to your local GNC, buy a bottle of Colloidal Silver. Drink it over the next few days. One bottle won't turn you blue (and it is really hard to do with lots of silver).

Colloidal Silver kills Bacteria, Viruses, and Molds by interfering with their oxygen processing enzymes. It effectively suffocates them to death.
