Vista? and a NuBus Mac? You probably couldn't get worse compatibility even if you tried

As to sarcasm I don't think we need an emoticon for that.

Type in <sarcastic mode on>
When finished with the paragraph or sentence you type <sarcastic mode off>

I really must remember to do this in future. Used to work on Fidonet and Usenet.

744988 2009-02-05 23:56:00 *paragraph here* works well also, but a emoticon would be nice.

Wait, was your post sarcastic Sweep?

744992 2009-02-06 20:42:00 I have more:

1x Viewsonic CRT 17" on our win95, it would shake afte a time - we returned that .

1x LG CRT 17", quite a upper model I think, with a O . S I think it would over usage, go blur, only way to fix was to restart PC, restart screen doesn't fix . We have upgraded that PC and then to WinXP - seems to be gone now .

1x Now, ASUS GeForce 9600GT Black Pearl PCI-Express, when installed drivers would disconnect and reconnect in half a second, happens every minute and now, or sometimes several times per minute . Planning to swap it for a ATI, perhaps a 4830 .

Have checked drivers/windows settings, have received a replacement new 24" widescreen HD computer panel, have bought a new DVI cable . At last resort may findle around with the bios settings .

744993 2009-02-06 23:16:00 The hard drive's mechanics on my first ever PC failed- back then it was a case of remove discs in a dust free environment, and would have cost $k's. I replaced the hard drive, so that's an epic fail I guess :D Sick Puppy (6959)
744994 2009-02-07 03:04:00 I belong to my local Computer User Group and not one of the members raised their hand today when I asked, "Who has backed up their hard drive during January 2009?"

Had to go back to August before I found someone with a backup. I know he was right too as I remembered doing it for him. I wasn't sure when but it would have been about then.
