    Yeah it is pretty great. When you can get into the actual garden part. And it isn't freezing.

    touché. I forgot about the failscursion.

    It seems that when I stream on my wireless connection, my brother's girlfriend's wireless connection slows to a crawl, so since she has to study tonight I've been barred from streaming. This is a little lame.
    o_O

    What kind of router are you using? And have you tried adjusting the QoS settings?

    I went to Sandals Jamaica for my honeymoon

    I probably wouldn't do an all inclusive again, given the choice

    Why is that?

    well on the one hand it's nice to have everything taken care of for you

    and we were in some little private villa thing (we got upgraded?), which was rad

    but I would have rather been out in the town, finding good places to eat and things to do, rather than going to one of the 3 restaurants on the property

    it just paled for me after a couple of days

    also we had a giant hurricane during our honeymoon but that's not sandals' fault (OR IS IT)

    xp was on floppy? wow

    that sounds horrendous

    No, but the XP OEM disc didn't have the necessary storage drivers, so it would BSOD if you tried to install to this laptop. And it wasn't set up to accept additional drivers from any source other than a floppy. In this case, a USB floppy drive.

    dot dot dot

    The alternative here is to slipstream the drivers onto a new copy of the XP disc, but if you're using an OEM disc as your source, that can be a pain in the ass.

    But yeah that's a good reason to keep around an old USB floppy.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    We had a large area of our cable internet service go down for a couple hours. When it came back up a bunch of customers' routers did not aquire new IPs, so they just need to be restarted to get reconnected.

    Just got a call from a customer who I explained this to and then asked him to reboot his router. His response?

    "No, I'm pretty sure it's the modem. I'll go reboot it."

    "No, sir, I can see the modem is connected to us right now, but I have no signal from your router. Just cycle your router and it should be resolved."

    All of a sudden the cable modem goes offline.
