Did your *source* have any reviews of the Chevy Silverado?
Oh joy...the class idiot has promoted himself to computer maven. Glad I
have the troll where he belongs, in the dumpster with the rest of the
crap.

Reggie said he uses FireFox but complains about IE7. He earlier said his
OS
is WinXP but complains about VISTA.

Is there a pattern here?


I dunno' he has mostly pasted other folks experience, fair enough. I
have noticed over the year when folks have insufficient backups to
revert back from a bad package or installation, they tend to get real
testy and look for someone to go off on (blame)... ;)

Sure he is. And now we find that he has assumed several aliases here over
the past few days. Do the handles of JG2U and Stunk ring a bell?

Coincidentally both are new here and instantly started attacking me.

Go figure. ;-)



JimH,
That is so easy to figure out, and I thought you said you knew
computers. Check the IP and you will see who they are.

Learn to read headers. New handle, new machine, old poster, same old
munged email addy. Nothing to do with anybody you're thinking about.


So why do you find it necessary to hide your identity and constantly change
handles?



How many handles have you used over the years? Dennis Compton sound
familiar? Remember he was the guy who had a nervous breakdown in
rec.boats and then blamed it on his son.

This is my second handle in 7-8 years. I know as much about *your*
identity as you do about mine.


JimH is the same guy who whined about Harry stalking and threatening him
and his wife because he said he knew his address and thought his home
looked tacky. It was one of his more common whines for about a 3 yr
period. He even lied about a link Chuck posted on here saying Chuck
published his telephone number. Now he wants to know everyone home,
address and telephone number

I'm starting to realize a lot of these guys are geezers without a clue
on computers.


But they do like to pretend they know something.

Heck, Harry can not figure out how to use his famed Kill Filter.

Unlike you I have used just one over the past couple of years since dumping
Dennis Compton.

How many handles have you used over the past month?




1 for the past 2 years

He's used about seven or eight since I turned on my bozo bin last week.
I'm guessing he thinks I am "filtering" him on his faked user name or
faked email address. That's just one way he's being filtered, but not
the only way. That's why as soon as he "changes" it, the filter catches
the change and dumps him down in the septic tank, along with the other
effluent. Reggie is *gone* unless he is requoted and I happen to read
that post.

And even more
relevant for Microsoft is the fact that even with IE7 on the market, it
has continued to lose its grip over the browser market dropping from
over 80% in 2006 to 77.35%, while Firefox grew to an estimated 16.01%.

I didn't even know what browser version I had - I've got IE 7.

Works for me.

Me too, but I rarely use it. I use Firefox. I like it.


You know what I hate most about Firefox and IE7?

Tabbed browsing.


Tabbed browsing is what turned me on to FF in the first place at a time when
IE hadn't gotten around to it.

Just curious, what don't you like about the tab feature?


I don't know - seems like over kill. You can always open another
window if you need more than one - hell, two or three if necessary.

I had somebody tell me one time that the advantage of tabs was that
she could open as many as 14 tabs at once and flip back and forth.

My answer was that she needed serious psychiatric help. :)

From an ergonomic standpoint, it's no better than opening up another
window, so what's the point?

Mrs. Wave has a G something or other latest Mac - I have to say that
it is a nice machine.

I won't buy one if only because I hate GUI and Apple brought it to the
world.
