<0> well the main problem is the xp key
<0> i need to recover that
<1> same difference
<2> they lost their key too? should be on a sticker on the computer ch***is if it was a OEM system.
<1> google can find you a program that will do that.
<0> if i can get in the damn thing its a hell of alot easier than copping the reg key (which i dnt know where it is)
<0> its not oem
<0> old couple
<2> of course, thaty key will only work with the same sort of original distribution.
<2> if its a retail 'upgrade' key, it will only work with a retail 'upgrade' CD
<2> etc etc.
<0> yea i know that
<0> :0
<0> * :)
<0> ok ganna mess around with this
<2> wouldn't buying a new computer be cheaper than paying some schlub who doesn't even know half this?
<0> thx peerafk
<0> ...
<0> yu are too critical
<2> was a dell deal on a 2.5Ghz complete with 19" LCD for $350 the other day.
<0> sure
<2> shop time for a computer consultant is what, $80/hour ?
<0> :)
<0> im cheap
<0> charge 30.00 hour
<0> and 50.00 for easy fixes
<2> so you spend 2-3 hours cleaning up this piece of crap computer and its STILL a piece of crap computer.
<0> 75.00 for reformatt and install anit spyware virus etc
<0> percisly
<0> (cant spell)
<0> ;p
<2> you've wasted $10 already just yacking here and haven't even gotten started.
<0> its a steal unfortunatly i dont think this is going to be feasable money income in about 5 years
<0> i didnt loose they lost ;p
<0> 2 more min to go to make it a full 10 min
<2> so whats our cut for helping you make money?
<0> soooooo blah blah blah
<2> I used to bill $125/hour as a software consultant til I got bored with bitchy customers and went back to full time
<0> well the satisfaction you help me and helped a elderly couple consequently
<0> whew 1125 eh?
<0> good money
<2> that was in the 80s, too.
<2> when money was still worth something.
<2> well, I was a developer.
<0> i am slowly realizing this is not what i want to do for the rest of my life
<0> thinking about going medical or law
<2> actually, $125/hour was just a basis. I normally fixed bid jobs based on estimated weeks at $5000/week.
<0> something intresting
<0> good stuff
<0> **** is 2:15?!
<2> lawyers and doctors, the only two professionals who refer to their businesses as 'practices'
<2> they practice law. and practice medicine.
<0> this is going to have to wait til tomarrow
<2> doctors are ****ed by insurance companies.
<0> that is a stereotype
<2> and lawyers are ****ed by their own karma
<0> everytime you work on a comptuer it can get considered practiced
<0> YOU choose not to call it that
<2> i'm an engineer.
<0> that is a naive play on words
<2> not a practicioner.
<2> anyways, its midnight, I need to practice 'sleep'.
<0> :)
<0> you have a good one
<1> practice has some etymological meaning
<3> no it has entomological meannig

<6> why do you keep doing it?
<6> praticing?
<4> software testing and its on a ifferent machine

<1> cHiKNPad: water, not air
<6> hydrogen
<6> h cl
<1> it pulls hydrogen from H20
<6> hometime is brought to you by the homemodepot
<1> iirc otherwise you need chlorine gas, hydrogen and heat
<6> it burns my eyes
<6> makes me almost not like killing
<1> thats chlorine gas
<1> Liquid chlorine bleach and its vapors (at levels of 3-6 ppm in air) are irritating to eyes. At levels of 15 ppm in air people experience nose and throat irritation. Touching liquid chlorine bleach can cause skin irritation. Drinking levels over 4 ppm can cause throat and stomach irritation, nausea and vomiting.

<13> hello
<13> my hard drive is 100 gb but windows shows that its 91.8 GB wtf? :(
<11> k
<13> ..in partition properties (windows explorer)
<11> sounds typical. hard drive companies consider capacity on a base 10 numbering system whereas computers technically consider capacity in a binary system
<11> just consider that typical. all hard drive companies do that nowadays.
<13> ok
<13> thanks for help
<9> biif: Hard drive marketers measure the size of a disk in powers of 10 (to swell the number), whereas on a computer, it's measured as a power of 2, and the difference between the two means a disk will have a formatted capacity that is lower than that of the manufacturer who measures it in terms of 1000.
<11> yep
<13> why do those companies do that ?
<9> cheap easy way to make drives look bigger. The whole industry does it, so it is just accepted practice.
<13> hrr i hate them
<14> 91.8 x 1073741824 = 98569499443 bytes
<13> i wanted to see three digits space (GB) on my machine :)
<14> then you should have gotten a bigger drive.
<13> yep
<14> and read the fine print on the box next time.
<13> nevermind
<13> there's no , its laptop
<14> it's probably mentioned somewhere in the spec sheet for the laptop.
<9> Dang. I lost one of the trays that goes in the backup server.
<14> hm, curious. this 120GB drive i picked up a couple months ago and never did anything with doesn't mention the 1,000,000,000 byte catch on the box. i thought they were all supposed to be doing that.
<13> :)
