Hey Zorro, the majority of people do in fact shut down their PC's daily. Just because you choose not to doesn't make this a "bad" idea.

"I paid for a product which , IN MY OPINION, underperformed. AS A CUSTOMER, MY OPINION IS SUFFICIENT TO DETER ME FROM BUYING AMD AGAIN" That is sufficient for me and all that needs said.

Thanks for the compliment! Used Konqueror, found it a POS.

No, I didn't say that, you said that. I choose to run Linux and am perfectly happy about my choice. I was reminded that I could use Chromium with Linux. I did try Chromium early on found it pretty rough around the edges.

I must agree. Of course, being a Linux user, my current choices are limited to Firefox and Opera. I use both, Firefox about 85-90% of the time.

I ran it for a while and found it a bit of a porker. Slow and unintuitive. It does compete nice with OSX in that it's almost as restrictive. No thanks MS.

The update seems to have rendered some flash content unplayable in Ubuntu 9.04. Maybe that's not really a bad thing!

*puts on tinfoilhat*

The original signals were recorded on high quality slow-scan TV (SSTV) tapes. What was released to the TV networks was reduced to lower quality commercial TV standards

yeah fuckin right... they just made some CGI footage and couldnt filter it properly to make it look like TV from the 60s since they never actually went to the moon and then made this crock of shit up as an excuse...

And..you know this ..how? Oh well, never mind.
