-Don

FWIW I bought some Friday @ 38.45 per the advice of a guy I subscribe to

Wondering why so little activity on this board? My plan is to buy the stock tomorrow.

I added to my position this AM. Looking and hoping for a good move,

Thanks very much Bruce for your advice.

I used to use Avast a long time ago but got away from it. Just downloaded it and will start back using it. I am also running AVG Antivirus. What are your thought on it Bruce and will these two aps fight?

Looking forward to your new posts

Wireless Network....I have one and the other computer gets a good speed...usually 11M but my question is if I connect another that will be running all the time will it reduce the connection speed of the other machine.
Thanks

Windows 7 ... It has been a while now, so you smarter than me folks please give me the answer. I have been happy with Vista but have the installation disk for the upgrade.
Install or no

-Don

This is sure exciting...guess I could find the $$$ to get a Terminator if I really needed one. Perhaps next year

-Don

Guess I am not doing too well but am only 77

Thanks

Thanks that was my thinking

Windows 7 ??? I have the disk to upgrade from Vista Home Premium. Should I wait for a while for the bugs to come out?

They have what has to be the best commercial for the Mac

-Don

Got my Win 7 upgrade from Vista today. Think I will wait a bit and learn from you experts before installing it

Laptop vs Notebook what is the difference?
The local paper had an add for a HP LAPTOP for 399.99 at Best Buy and I rushed to get it. When I got it home noticed that it is a NOTEBOOK and am wondering what is the difference. This machine may still be OK for me No gaming or trading just web surfing. It is a HP G60-458DX 2 Ghz Pentium T4200, 4 Gig DDR2 memory, 250 GB HD, 802.11 WLAN

The trouble is that I can't get rid of the XXXX thing. Using Vista tried to uninstall IE8 from the update list no luck. Tried the site mentioned on a earlier message here Couldn't find it.
May have something to do with the fact that I have been trying to install SP2 for Vista and am not sure if it took or not. The Windoze update list keeps wanting me to download it.
I have not tried a system restore yet.

Worth a try. Shudda thought of that.

Bill Gates offered me IE8 and dumb me I took him up on it. Been having a lot of trouble and want to go back to IE7. Help please.

Any thoughts on the low end Dell laptops. I see Inspiron model 1525 advertises on EBay (new in box) but when I check the Dell site they say it is a discontinues model and suggest another. It has mixed reviews but it may be OK for my limited use. The EBay deal doesn't look so hot to me now.

-Don

Thanks PSM and Bruce. Guess what is tempting me to act now is Bill's offer to sell the OS for $50 if I pre-order before 7/11. Since I can add memory to my desktop I should be able to the notebook if I can figure how to open it. My thought was the $$$ for new memory and the upgrade or buying a new notebook with a OEM Win 7 upgrade when available included might not be too much more and I would probably get a better CPU.

-Don

Thanks, That was the one I was looking for but when my computer died a while ago it died with it.

-Don

Don't really want a dream machine but just thinking about a new laptop for mail and web surfing. My three year old one has a 1.6 gig celeron processor and only 512 ram not enough for a upgrade to win 7 that I am thinking about getting.
Any suggestions?

-Don

Need the site for a free program that I used to have that listed all the components of the machine I have.

-Don

Windows 7....I noticed that MSFT is running a special and wondered if anyone has thoughts on upgrading. Running Vista on this box (happy with it) and XP on my laptop

-Don

Computer died so also Microsoft Office 2000. I have the registration code but my copy of the program disk must be scratched as it wont load.
I am really only interested in Excel so wonder if someone else has a program that works as well. Don't really do not want to send Gates more money than is necessary

-Don

congrats on 30000

Thanks

Windows Update...Strange
I have a laptop and desktop connected via a home wireless and tried to do a windoz update to the desktop this afternoon. No luck just error msgs. Then tried on the laptop and it worked. Just now tried again for the desktop and it is telling me that the updates were done this afternoon and no new ones available. Getting the same message on the laptop.
Wondering if one download could have installed to both machines?
Don't think so but don't know what else could have happened.


-Don

Changed HD so am now adding the other stuff and would like to know which antivirus etc to use

Had AVAST before and liked it. Also used COMODO for a firewall.
Do I need both and would you suggest something different?

-Don

Agree
In my opinion PC Pitstop is now mostly selling

I just wiggle the mouse...but then again I am not a geek.

Thank you
If all else fails try the obvious

Email Receipt Program
When my HD died the program that told me when a email was received was lost as well and I can't remember the name of the program.

-Don

Hi Gang
Having a tough time changing from a machine with a dead HD to a new with Vista.
I lost a super utility that tracked my outgoing emails and showed when they were received.
Can anyone HELP?

-Don

Agree
Any suggestion as to make and model.
I remember my first machine was an AppleIIe for >$3000

A little off topic as it is not a Terminator queston, but my computer is not well.
Been running slow for a few days and Monday would't start at all. Got to the starting Windows blue page and just hungup. Tried to use the HP restore program and it told me I had a bad file and then just stopped.
Anyway the local shop says that the HD is no good and he can sell me another for $78 but for a new copy of WinXP and the installation and perhaps file copy the total comes to about $200.
I am thinking that I might be better off starting over with a new machine off the shelf somewhere.
Any suggestions. Don't do gaming or trading so do not need anything fancy.

-Don

Same Here
Thanks for your efforts.
-Don

Too Good Thanks
