What do you know about Windows 7? There isn’t a whole lot out about it yet, other than a few details spreading like wildfire around the net, but visually it looks great from the limited screen caps. Steve Ballmer and Bill Gates have been marketing it pretty heavily, however their message is still that Vista is the greatest Operating System out. There are definitely arguments about that.

I am curious to know what you know about Windows 7! Let me know. I am going to be writing a full post about it soon and would like to hear some feedback about the new OS that will replace the horrendous Vista.

Computer Stupidities

So I found a rather entertaining website, rinkworks.com/stupid, which has some great humor around computer repair. Here are some examples that I found on the site.

1. Customer: “Is it possible to put Windows 95 on a Commodore 64?”
2. Customer: “It says here that I need a 2 times CD-ROM drive. Does this mean I have to get another CD-ROM drive?”
3. Customer: “I need you to tell me what browser I am using. Is it Netscape 2.0? The reason I need to know is that I have read that Netscape 2.0 distributes a virus called Java.”

So these are just a few examples. But there are some great quotes on their site. Go check it out when you get bored. Thank you Rinkworks.com!!!
