Windows is Scary
So, do I even want to know what will happen if I press this button?
And yes, that would be my boot device.

Thanks, that was the best laugh I've had in days. 
So... has dv been heard from since, or was his plug pulled along with the RAID device's?

You can have everything in my computer closet(s), except the power tools. Local pickup only: bring a U-Haul.

Not enough. Too much Vermont cheddar, not enough fiber & Prep H.
And add mrreet2001 to the 'asked so will never be a mod' list. But maybe he can be honorary #2 on the list for the iPod forum.

Re: Windows is Scary

Re: Windows is Scary
Wait!
This thread title is grammatically incorrect!
It should be "Windows ARE Scary"

Obviously a device used by the Vermont National Guard to track airborne cheese.

Re: Windows is Scary
I think that'd be the ANG's job, tho it'd be easier with limburger.
And like the old Calvin Klein ads, nothing comes between sturner and his cheese.
Nothing could.

Hey, my speel checker didn't squwak about it so why are you? If you don't like cheddar, regardless of its spelling, well, I'm sorry for your loss.

Re: Windows is Scary
Hey, I never said I don't like cheddar. I had it on pizza earlier.
I wonder, tho- will we be reading next that the cheedar spectrum was sold in that auction, too? Maybe it's now owned by the [s]Canadien[/s]Russian Mafia. I had to use optical tracking.
