i made a neowin group on yahoo too....these you are doing by hand?  why do you torture yourself like that boog?

anyways, if we need a backup on yahoo, the ID# is 10664, password is neowin.

what do we do with these?  email them to you?  post them here?

I actually enjoy doing it, and yahoo doesn't quite do it the way I like it. It's really no problem for me to do this. i was out a bit last year and [yt] helped me out dutifully. I love football so much, I enjoy doing this.

By the way, how does your point system work BOOG? I didn't understand the + numbers on the results.

EDIT: Perhaps it is the amount of points we were over in the total points predictions. Sorry Neowinians, I'm slow at times. If I'm wrong then I'm just plain stupid.  :p

586519776[/snapback]

It's the amount you were off on the total points.

If you guessed 14 or 34 for the game, you get +10. You obviously don't want a lot of points like me. (24 :pinch:)

It comes down to the Giant/Saints game tonight. 4 of the top 6 picked New Orleans, the other three, the Giants. Looks like it will come down to points.

Meanwhile, everyone is smart and took Dallas tonight. :p

    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.

    • "No. The "New Outlook for Windows" does not support non-cloud mailboxes (such as on-premises Exchange servers). Furthermore, because the New Outlook effectively functions as a web-based client, it requires all connected accounts—even standard IMAP or POP accounts—to route and cache data through Microsoft's cloud servers. You can verify the accepted account setups using the Microsoft Supported Account Types Guide." Built to fail "New" Outlook is basically just webmail in a window wrapper and it's usefulness reflects that.
