If you have had problems with Vista SP1 (which is a tested and released package), I find it strange that you would be running development alpha versions of a new OS. :ermm:

It seems that you would almost be guaranteed to end up with more problems than you experienced in production-released Vista.

You forgot to add ",just FYI" at the end...

Nah, but really, you have Ubuntu 8.10 Alpha, maybe you can write some first thoughts, some insight?

Also, please refrain from capitalizing every first letter of a word, it's not proper grammar and it takes much longer than normal grammar rules....

It's great you're trying to share with the web community, but you need to be able to communicate more efficiently textual-wise.

    • Apple raises MacBook and iPad prices as memory costs surge

      By matthiew · Posted

      Not surprising at all. Apple got three months worth of marketing hype with the Macbook Neo's incredible low launch price. They have sowed the idea that the Neo is the best value laptop and that idea will last for years even though the value is no longer there. They do this every five years or so with a single new product that is amazing value which distracts from the rest of their products being horrendously overpriced.

      Fire and rehire. Doubt the work contracts are as favourable. Smart tactic using AI to do it legally.
