One for the history books....
While I realize most people might think me unqualified to say this, but young people are easily impressionable, I myself have often "believed everything I heard" despite warning from my mother. So the 20-25 years doesn't surprise me, especially since drafting was blown way out of proportion and it NEVER HAPPENED during the War on Terror, and the 20-25 age group is right in that ideal ball park. i think people's dislike of Bush was a combination of media blowing things out of proportion and his "get things done attitude". That get things done attitude was the one good thing about Bush. I don't see much else that was good about him though, he was just the guy that wanted war for me. I don't see any good reason why one would go to war.

what do you think will happen in 2012?
I've seen when reading that conspiracy theory that there would be anormal siesmic(sp?) activity happening from time to time around the world starting around half 2009. I have yet to see one. I don't see why it ould be different than other years, all the usual will happen, nothing more.

One for the history books....
Everyone I know hates Bush, so I don't know if he's going to be remembered as a good president in other countries. From outside view, Bush is the one that was the bad one, and also the one, in my opinion, that made everyone hate the United States. I'm sorry, but without knowing who those people are that means absolutely nothing. Just about everyone under the age of 16 (at least) hates Bush because that's the message that has been trickled down to them. The people who constantly called Bush an idiot were generally idiots themselves, and it was just joke that stupid people made to feel smart. With regards to the Iraq war - The United States and allies did what was required of them to take steps against very real threats. Now, the day to day happenings of the war were hardly ideal at all, but I shudder to think how different things could have been if not for many of the Bush administration's foreign policies. Actually, they're all people aged 20+ and 25+.

It will be remembered until the day the sun expands, but it will actually be a jukebox.

Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
The font color thing is because of the different forum themes, but most use the default one. On topic: I hate nightshifts, yet, I did it all summer. Can't wait to get back to college though.

buying a new laptop
HP laptops did have overheating problems, but they repaired that on their new models, supposedly. I was going to link you to an Asus laptop, but I just saw you're not going over $1000 :S. Edit: I actually found this one: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications ... CatId=2289

How much water to you drink per day?
I think I drink around 1.5L to 2L. Although if I followed my thirst I'd be drinking lots more and be going to the washroom every 2 mins. Uncomftable to always be thirsty but anyway, I lived with that for as long as I can remember.

Stuff that creeps you out (Insects maybe? D:)
:wall: :wall: :wall: He's not that bad is he? I'm Australian so don't flame me :o Lets just say hes destroyed our whole [bleeping] economy and his damn health care thing he wants so bad. But enough of that i dont want to start a politacal war :-# Bush is the one that killed the economy. And maybe Clinton a little bit. If you want to play that game, go for it

What kind of cell phone plan/type do you have?
Motorola W385 and had it for a few years, with Telus. [hide=Phone] Time is not on the side like that though.[/hide] I'm on a pretty good plan too, only costs me 31 dollars per month. One of the reasons I have a cell is because I don't have a home phone in my appartment :P.

Color Problems only when watching dvds
You can still plug a DVI-D in a DVI-I. That's what I've done with both my screens (although one is an adapter DVI to HDMI), and it works perfectly. Well, I know it works in dual link DVIs. I guess the card adapts. Anyway, to the problem: Are your drivers up to date? Have you tried the screen on another computer? I guess that maybe you bought a defective screen unfortunately, good thing there's a warranty.

why winamp over windows media player
Alal_Pwn, refering to the posts you have made in tech and computers recently, I will just add that Linux is not all there is. If people like windows most, they go for windows, if people like apple more, they go for an apple computer. It's all preference.

MSN randomly signing me out
Solution is simple, don't get it to login by itself on the netbook, only on the computer you're the only one to use. And even then. Thing is, if you have the latest, it should just tell you you're connected at both places, not log you out. and the person singing you in is the one with the netbook, meaning it probably is your father.

why winamp over windows media player
Songbird looks too much like Itunes to me (I hate Itunes, and not because it's mac, it's for another reason). Anyway I still use Windows Media player, fits all my needs (after I put the klite codec pack for videos) while not bottlenecking any other programs I might be using at the same time. I like the way it sorts albums too when we go to the library (although it takes a lot of space).

Things you do that you think no one else does
It does protect the files, they will see that one time, the USB key won't be working at all, or maybe even the USB plug on the computer. Anyway, I left click to safely remove hardware -> Everyone does it the right click way where I live (almost everyone does it), left click way is much faster. I thought I was the only one :o

CD Burner?
Then there must be a reason why I could see it on XP but not on Vista at college.

Why Firefox is better than IE?
Actually, anything is better than IE. Firefox is not the best one either, I find it's Opera that's the best one. IE is very slow and full of security flaws that take time before they get fixed by Microsoft, while for firefox they make a fix in quite a short time.

CD Burner?
If you burn with that program, you will see nothing on the CD with any other OS than windows XP. Be warned. Completely untrue. Have you at least tried it? We used it in college and couldn't see what was on the cd unless we were on XP.

Reveal Confessions, Secrets & Regrets...
How is that? I have much less trouble closing a window in Vista than XP (doesn't crash like XP used to) :lol:

Constant Internet Disconnections =/
Did the problem start when you replaced the Ethernet cable?
-
Constant Internet Disconnections =/
Maybe someone is pirating your cable? It did the same thing with my friend when the landlord pirated his cable to give it for free to another person. Then again my friend didn't have a subscription for tv.

Microsoft Word settings issues
Saving a file at normal page standards might work, but don't quote me on that.
