I asked him today and he said Windows Platinum will always be worth more than a piece of Chrome plated google

Re: And google announces an Operating system....
VISTA is a piece of shit. I'm on the phone with Indian folks all the time trying to get it to work. Had to replace the McAfee they sold me because ti's not compatible. When they told me that I said, well why the hell did you recommend it when I bought the computer. Maybe some day I will wise up and get an Apple ...

LMAO.....ah poor Craig after all these years you are still a computer rookie
Now I admit I am still a XP Pro member and run a house full of pc's but you should know that blaming those online clowns from India or McAfee is one thing but blaming Microsoft because Vista wasn't working with some cheap pc you bought along with CrapAfee security is just silly
That isn't the operating systems fault.
Maybe it is the "operator"
Btw which version of Vista do you have?
And you should know by now that you just have to email me and I would have picked you out the best deal and a pc that would work for even a Texan!
But if you want to buy some overpriced under-achiver go ahead and get a Mac and I will try not to too much

Re: And google announces an Operating system....
I had to buy a new 'puter for the office and another one real soon. Found an Acer dual core that had Vista Business, but also came w/ XP Pro. I dumped the Vista and loaded XP. Me likey!
I know Acer is considered chump equip, but working fine so far...
besides, it was the only one I could find that had both OSs... the software maker (Vertafore, in WA) said I needed XP Pro... that Vista didn't work so well with their product.
Next up is a laptop w/ wireless card. My new agency mgmt sys is all internet based. I can take the whole shebang under my arm as I go on walkabout!
WTF... its only money.

Re: And google announces an Operating system....
That is a perfect deal for your business work Kurt.
I like those deals that still add XP Pro (they call a downgrade)
And that Acer will work fine and they are cheap and I see dual-cores for under $500.....can't beat that for a laptop that you can haul around from work and back in the Caddy

The processors are what really matters CK.. I'd wait to buy a laptop just a little while though, the next generation laptops are going to be alot better.... Solid state drives, mobile quad cores etc....
Oh and be sure to get one with that is spill proof... (from experience )
