Internet Explorer

I hate IE! I am now switching to solely to Firefox.
I have used IE for years and have been used to using it, but lately it crashes without warning and for no reason.

I have also been using Microsoft products since the beginning, approx 1984.
With Apple's technologies quickly surpassing MS, I am considering an Apple computer when the time comes for replacement.

Microsoft needs to take the hints of Apples success and give off of their lazy asses and do something worth while.

And for the loser virus/trojan programmers, you start praying we never meet!

Dual-monitors, window hidden

Switching from dual monitors to a single monitor then losing windows?

Select ALT-SPACEBAR on your keyboard, then 'M' (for Move), then use the keyboard arrow keys to move the window back into view.

I have used this trick for a few years and it works great!

Before I switch from dual to single monitors, I drag all of my windows to my primary monitor before closing them. This will save the positions for the next time they are open.

Obama

First "black" president?!

Give me a break!
"We are in a recession!" People are losing jobs, their homes, their savings, and their trust in the U.S. government...and people are concerned about the "first black president"??

Then the media's headlines are concentrating on Obama being the first "black" president??

Who cares??!!

What is he going to do for us to make this a better place to live?
I say this for any president.

I would get reprimanded, yelled at, possibly fired, or get into a fight if I were to call an "African American" black!

I once had a "black" woman ask me where I was from. I said Los Angeles. She asked me what country my last name is from. I said I am "German American".
She said I can't say that because I'm not from Germany.
She said she's "African American" because her ancestors were from Africa.
Damn!! I told her I'm more German than she is African!!
She called me a racist! A racist?? A racist calls me a racist??!!

When I applied for the LAPD, I was told I can't go forward because they weren't hiring "white males"!! Well...F*** you!!

People with this arrogance don't belong here. Get a life, move on.

I have just as many rights as anyone else in this country, I don't care what damn color anyone is.
Citizens of the U.S. need to get their thumbs out of their mouths, grow up, and act like human beings!

We have lost our technologies to other countries, all do to corporate greed, government bureaucracy, and plain 'ol stupidity.

If change doesn't happen soon, there will be no turning back.

Sad and he will be missed.
