    Trouble networking two PCs (to Vista from XP)

    The background I have been using a laptop for the past few years as I was on the road going to and from university and using it in class. Now that I'm graduated and settled into a full-time job, I decided to buy a desktop. So I bought myself a shiny new Dell (I just don't do much gaming anymore...

    Do any schools other than UIUC have Unofficial St. Patrick's Day?

    The Red Wings lose Cheli and Thomas to knee injuries... Now TEN regulars are out!

    Bah, we (Colorado) won the President's Trophy in 1998 when Ozolinsh sat out the first half of the season and at the beginning we had nearly all of our top players - Forsberg, Deadmarsh, Foote, Drury, and I forget who else, but I think for a while we had nine regular players out. BTW, this is...

    DELL SUCKS (rant)!!!!

    Beat me to it, barely, although I would suggest not using that kind of threatening language, try to be constructive about it. Say that you were satisfied and were happy to be a Dell customer before, but that you think this is bad customer service, or something more along those lines than coming...

    DELL SUCKS (rant)!!!!

    Have you tried calling again and trying to speak with a supervisor or someone slightly higher up the chain of command than the guys who just answer the phones? I would try that first, because while technically you're in the wrong here, this is the kind of thing that companies will sometimes give...

    Sweet! New building for us EEs at school!!! *geeks' wet dream*

    Yeah, I know, my best friend (who I've known since we were two) is an engineer. As is his roommate, who's become a fairly good friend of mine. I just like to make fun of them and anyone else who's a masochist... I mean engineer ;)

    Wow, you engineers really are a sad lot... I would have at least thought you could get some human women, even if they weren't very good looking, but if you've given up and gone on to mice now, wow...

    Anyone here a......VEGETARIAN???

    Piss off, no! I couldn't live without meat. I'm from Alberta, which is where most of Canada's beef is produced. Even if I weren't, though, I would still have to eat my beef. I don't know how anyone does without it. Mmm... beef....

    West Wing- What happened to the VP?

    Cannon's got it right. Hoynes (the former VP) resigned towards the end of last year to avoid a scandal because he'd had an affair with a woman who had subsequently published some confidential things he had told her in a book.

    This is the best idea I've ever heard! Apart from all the others, of course...
