That's good to know, nice that's an option.

Yeah if I wanted a browser with no conventional pull-down menus and no title bar I'd use Chrome.

I've used Turbotax the last few years. It works fairly well, although their walkthrough for each section is a bit cumbersome if you only want to change one thing.

A couple complaints though, Turbotax price for the version that files a Schedule C went up a lot. Luckily I can share the cost with another person, Turbotax lets you file 6 returns. With Turbotax you get free federal e-file, but not state e-file, they want $25 for that. I used to just fill out my simple state tax tax forms online on the state site, but for some reason the state no longer offers the simple online form hosted on their own servers. So I just print my state return and mail it with a check.

That's more like it. But the US guvmint apparently hates diesels.

36MPG is not good gas mileage, especially for a tiny car like that. I think that's what is bothering the vandals.

I don't plan on upgrading the XP machines until necessary. They run third-party anti-virus and firewalls, and weren't configured to download updates anyway. They are backed up daily and do their job very well. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I don't find Win7 to be buggy at all and it's very stable. But I still like the XP interface and layout better. For example, try disabling and then re-enabling your LAN connection in Win7. Disabling isn't so hard, but re-enabling took me several minutes.

In XP you just right-click on the (animated) system tray icon and pick Disable. To re-enable it, go to Start, Settings, Network Connections, right-click on LAN connection and pick Enable.

I never installed the patches anyway, although I did install SP1, 2, and 3. A good firewall and common sense have kept me virus-free since DOS and floppy disk days (I got the Stoner virus about 20 years ago.)

It's my only good internet option, slow at 1.5Mb but unlimited. Satellite no, 3g no, dial-up hell no.

Yes, the only difficulty in installing an older version of an Android app is finding a trustworthy source. Of course you could back up your own APK files.

Personally I leave auto-update turned off and only upgrade when I need/want to. I don't need an unexpected update changing the functionality of the app before I'm good and ready for it.

Yes I think they're more obvious now too. What I don't like is the larger font.

Really very cool IMO.

Just like Best Buy will charge you $29.99 to set up your game console: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Geek+Squad%26%23174%3B+-+In-Store+Gaming+and+Customization+Setup/8835497.p?id=1218016228965&skuId=8835497

I think they do an in-home install for $100 or more!

I don't know who they are but I would think BanxCorp would be happy to be mentioned favorably by Costco and Capital One.

I use it to keep in touch with a group of gaming friends, you send one message and everyone in the group gets it. Sort of like a forum, but you can create groups any time you like, invite anyone you like to them, and there is no moderation.
