Charles, I think it's great that you have the know-how to build and upgrade on your own. And I think your definition of "pregnet" is great. LOL.:)
Skunk, re your #3, I like that, too. I don't know HOW it works, but I'm always happy that it does. Re #7, I do believe there might be some G-rated cams out there. Hey, if you haven't crashed since '94, you're doing something right.:)
Large screens are great, aren't they, Bilbo? I've never used a Mac, but in light of all the glitches inherent in Windows, I'm tempted to switch next time I buy. Wonderful definitons today!:)
I have 2 great laptops, VE, and a desktop which I hadn't even turned on in God knows how long 'til the other night when I needed to convert some Word docs to WordPerfect. I'm itching to get a BlackBerry, too. Regarding WordPerfect, yep, they do still make it. That's what the computers in my new workplace are running (version 12). Personally, I find Word far superior.:)
You have very colorful computers, /t. Now that I've seen pink and red laptops, I need to have one of those, too. LOL. You've been upgrading the same machine since 1978?! Wow! Hey, you should have tackled the wacky words anyway; a number of different interpretations is always desirable. And you've NEVER been inadequate.:)
I like silver in a computer, Kan. My laptops are silver and black. I've heard about that free open source word. How do you like it? And ... have you tried Google Docs? Re #10, oh, Lord, yes! One NEVER wants to piss off the Crash gods. I love your Wild Word interpretations today; too funny!
Job update for you: Yesterday, I was NOT impressed. I was left to my own devices, working alone in the boss's office no less, with a stack of files 2 feet high to wade through and attempt to figure out what pleadings or other work was needed. I had a "system" to figure out on my own. I've never worked with a "system" before. I was so busy that the time flew by, with no breaks, food, or cigarette.
Today, however, the difference was night and day. I mastered the damned "system" yesterday, so today I knew what I was doing and got my work finished with plenty of time to spare for a cigarette, food, and goofing off with the front office girl. Today, I had FUN. I'm going to like this job, even if I did have to go back in after work and get the boss to come out and move her Jag so I wouldn't back into it. LOL.:)
1) My computer is a - desktop (have access to a laptop but I don't like them at all)
2)Computer's color? - Gray with black trim. - (I don't know its nationality or creed)
3)I like best about the puter? - It's fast and can be upgraded easily
4)I like least about the puter? - I could use some more USB ports, and I could use a graphics/animation card
5)I use windows (doors creak)
6)I prefer Word Perfect (only because I am so used to it)
7)Do I use web cam? No, don't own one and don't need it. (Sure don't want to see Skunk using his)
8)I do not use chat programs
9)Since my computer is only CD readable, I will sometimes listens to CDs. (Listening to soundtrack "The Big Chill" right now.)
10) I never had a computer crash. (I had my car keys from it)
11)The last time I bought a computer? Never bought one. Won one in raffle drawing and like Charles have been upgrading it
12)When will I buy a new computer?
Hopefully with a year.
