When it's so cold that it's difficult to move the shift lever from side to side while in neutral...

The last few pages are sad. Complete lack of understanding of mental illness.

All due respect to those in distress, but this thread is getting me down.

Everyone wish Y8s a happy birthday.

Discovered Classic Shell today. I feel like I just performed an exorcism on my laptop. Go back to the pits of hell, ineffective Windows 8.1 interface!!!

Been using it ever since I first started using Win7 at the office.

Good stuff.

(Had no idea it also worked on Win8. I shall be less hesitant to upgrade to it in a few years.)

I was ok with Windows 8.1 at first. Then I realized that just about anything that was easy to configure on Windows 7 and earlier requires a Google search and watching 3 Youtube videos to figure out on Windows 8.1. Kid you not, I installed a program and then had no flipping idea where to go just to open the damn program. In order to connect to a bluetooth headset, it is like a 5 step process.

does anyone else apologize to their cat more than their own spouse when you accidentally hurt them physically in some way? I think my wife is jealous I babied Gibson for about an hour from accidentally stepping on his tail. Wife was not impressed.

This why I still use XP. 95 was even easier to use. I hate having a system that takes up half a computer only to give me a lot of **** I don't need and works against my two minute memory loss.

Did you not console your wife sufficiently after stepping on her tail, or am I missing something?

New carpet coming next week. Spent the morning moving furniture.

The degree to which I am not interested in taking advantage of that offer is difficult to state in words.

I started using Windows 3.0 when the desire to use WSYWIG word-processing applications outweighed the burdensome hardware requirements and sluggish performance as compared to MS-DOS.

I upgraded to Windows 3.1 because of TrueType fonts and better networking support (Trumpet Winsock and NCSA Mosaic.)

I upgraded to Win95 when I wanted to run applications that were not supported by 3.1.

I upgraded to WinXP when I wanted to use drivers that were not supported by Win95.

I upgraded to Win7 when I wanted to use more memory and larger hard drives than were supported by WinXP.

I will upgrade to either Win8 or Win10 when a similarly compelling need becomes evident.

Probably do this to her too and send the video to relatives.
