<1> good for you
<2> That's gotta be some kinda trick.
<2> This isn't my first time at the rodeo.
<3> lol
<3> ok, well thanks for the help
<4> skoalwork: gay rodeo?
<2> YOU KNOW IT
<2> Gayer than the day is long.
<2> I'm talkin' ***less chaps, putting the saddle on backwards
<2> the whole 9.
<2> INCHES!
<4> hehehehe'
<4> aren't you supposed to be working?
<2> I am working
<4> sure you are
<4> wink wink
<2> I have four displays in front of me right now.
<4> of what?
<2> i'm doing two database imports, and fixing print spoolers on two machines that are 6 miles away
<2> 3 workstations
<4> like superman!
<5> yeah, but one of them is #windows, one is #brokeback, one is #fatty, and one is #hardgainer
<4> brokeback hehe
<2> #fatty
<4> became a cliche before the movie even opened in wide releases
<4> skaol likes fat chicks?
<2> no, he's saying i'm fat.
<4> oh :(
<4> sad either way
<2> these two displays in front of me are my main workstation.
<2> right now its email, rdp, ssh, photoshop, cygwin, notepad, word, excel, winamp.
<2> the next one over is my secondary, that's just doing a db import now
<4> i have #windows and snood
<2> and the third one over is idle.
<2> my laptop isn't here.
<4> well where the hel is it!
<4> mmmm cahcews and almosnds
<4> yummy snack
<6> I have a video card with tv-out and the tv works as a second display, however I want it to mirror my primary display. how do I do that?
<7> oh lord i'm writing VBA to do DNS lookups in an excel spreadsheet.
<7> i have failed.
<8> hey guys -- I was just reading about the 6 versions of Vista -- and though I can see maybe see a general Workstation version and Server version, why 6??? Seems like overkill.
<9> samalex: Are we Microsoft?
<8> erm, s/see maybe/maybe
<10> Hmmm, for like 15 bux more a month, I can go from 7m down to 10m down.
<8> fdiv_bug: define 'we'...
<9> samalex: Those of us in this channel.
<9> Are we the company?
<9> Because if not then how can we know why they've chosen that course of action?
<7> this is too much work.
<7> fired.
<8> I have no idea, but I ***ume they're doing this to appease the public's needs, and us being the public I wanted to hear opinions of those who would be using some or all of the versions.
<9> FI-ERT!
<9> BANT!
<9> samalex: I'll worry about what version I should be using when it gets released.
<9> Which isn't for, what, another year and a half? I've got time to figure that out.
<10> samalex, are you aware that there are 6 versions of XP?
<8> Hawkeye: i'm aware of three versions of XP, but not 6.
<10> I love how people freak out when they hear 6 versions of Vista, not realizing there are already 6 versions of XP
<8> It just seems like most things Microsoft, 10x more complicated then it needs to be.
<8> Hawkeye: would it make you feel better if I told you I don't run XP?
<9> samalex: If it's more complicated than it needs to be then they won't make as much money and they'll adapt.
<10> Would it make you feel any better if I told you I don't give a flying **** what you run?
<9> Meanwhile, I trust their judgement in determining how to package and sell their products.
<9> [14:01] [EFNet] CTCP VERSION reply from samalex: irssi v0.8.9 - running on Darwin Power Macintosh
<11> Hawkeye, dont bs us... we know that deep down, the only reason you get on IRC is so you can secretly discover what os everyone is running and juak off to the results
<9> UBChain: "juak" :-D
<11> its spanglish sorta
<9> Like "juerk."
<10> There were also six versions of Windows XP, although four of those came well after the initial launch of XP in 2001. On top of the initial Home and Professional editions, Microsoft later added a 64-bit version of XP Pro and Windows XP Starter Edition, as well as the Tablet PC and Media Center editions.
<10> Wankeur Deluxe(tm)
<7> ok. vba doesn't seem to support gethostbyip
<7> ****me.
<8> i simply was wondering what the views of others who run Windows are on so many versions of Vista, specially since I could see folks buying one and finding out it doesn't meet their needs so they must buy an upgrade to the next one up.
<7> or i'm too stupid to figure out out without binding .NET and ****
<8> ... I didn't come in here to stir a nest of hornets.
<9> samalex: If people don't do their research before they buy, that's not Microsoft's fault.
<9> Microsoft will presuambly be providing clear information on the differences between the different versions of the product, as they do now for things like Windows Server and Windows XP.
<5> samalex: There will really only be about 2 or MAYBE 3 to choose from
<8> True, I agree with you whole heartedly, but how many computer users simply say "I need a computer", goto Best Buy or similar, and buy acomputer knowing zero about them.
<5> from the home user
<7> blaming someone else is always easier than taking responsibility and being accountable to yourself.
<9> samalex: Lots. That's why they take the advice of the people at Best Buy, for better or worse.
<5> and most home users get their OS installed on their machine from the system builder anyway
<9> And those users will get the version of Windows installed on their computer and will be none the wiser that there even *are* other options, regardless of whether or not those options meet any needs they may or may not have.
<9> The same way they do now.
<12> fookin pda irc 'n **** while sittin here goin boring nutz
<10> Now based on what I've already read ... I have a feeling the "Ultimate" version is what I will end up running.
<12> jury duty ****s
<10> And I dunno if I'll even upgrade my parents any time soon.
<11> hehe
<8> sAMOa: I have jury duty in three weeks myself :)
<11> waiting to get called samoa?
<12> well get yer pda set up
<11> or sittin in the jury box pretending to be playing with yourself and really on irc?
<12> ub missed thefirst two groups
<11> downtown?
<11> or vista?
<12> yea.so bored i had time to get irc and im rockin
<2> okay so in outlook 2003 you can open "other user's inbox"
<8> It just seems they could have one version where the user selects what they need, whether it's networking for enterprise, home stuff for home, etc. MEdia Center could be a purchased add-in.
<2> how the **** do you close it?
<12> downtown
<11> some good skirt to check out at lunch time down there
<8> My bottom line is they make it overcompliated and for no reason.
<12> my motorcycle is across teh st. in plain view
<12> well no good skirt in da house now
<8> at any rate, I only run Windows at work, and being on Enterprise License I guess doesn't matter anyway.
<4> sAMOa: i did jury duty in the beginning of decemebr and got ****ing picked
<12> bunch of old stinky fartsn ****
<11> but the streets of downtown in that general vicinity is teaming with em at noon
<12> i hearz ya UB
<9> I like how "I don't understand the reason" means "no reason" in so many people's minds.
<11> you can probably smell it on a day after a good rain :)
<5> skoal: If its like any other pst file, you right click the main folder and 'close'
<12> one thing about irc'n on pda. yer fingers and thumbs be rockin
<2> yeah i couldnt find a 'close' anywhere.
