OMG! so your saying the comp is making it's own decisions? would you know if my comp is 3 laws safe? connects to skynet?

I'm saying my computer does that, so it's not outside the realm of possibilities. And they aren't self-aware yet, so no worries. Famous last words.

It's always funny to stick a 3.5" floppy into someones older comp tower and watch as it wont boot properly and they cant figure out why.

I just ghosted my computer. I hope my 8GB ram comes in soon.

As in norton ghost, orr? Why can't you use the computer till the memory arrives?

 

[Dar-Dar]

I meant to say that I reformatted the hard drive and re-installed win7. Lol. It's running on 4gbs right now.

 

[webby]

What if I said I'm on 768mb

 

[Dar-Dar]

Then you'll need a ram upgrade. Lol. Are you running Windows 7? I think it's recommended for a computer to have at least 2gb of ram to run 7.

Then you'll need a ram upgrade. Lol.

More like burn the thing to the ground and buy a new comp.....lol

 

[webby]

Lol I'm just playing.

 

[Dar-Dar]

Good thing. I wasn't sure if you were serious or not. lol. I don't think anyone can do much with less than a GB of ram nowadays.

 

[webby]

think back to the days of windows 3.1 ~ 4megs, or win95... with like 32megs of ram. Baller

 

[Dar-Dar]

The floppy disk era.

lulz....my dad upgraded this past April from an old Dell that had 1gb(he bought it before talking to me) to his new Gateway that has 6gb. He liked that change, lol. He basically used comps for internet, chatting with friends and family and simple online games.

My moms computer needs are the same as my dad but she just bought a 21inch iMac tonight(which I'm typing on now). She bought an iPad January. She balls so hard....
