Ok, so I spend a good half-an-hour working on Recondite Seventeen, compiling the poll comments, writing a progress report on Miasma v2, Generation 8, and FIAT v1.00, and then compiling a few misc. links. Then I'm nearly done... I go searching for one last link...

And my computer completely locks up. No keyboard response, no mouse response, it just locks up.

If I have the resolve, I may re-do it later today... but that just sucks.

Windows is like that...

And if that doesn't work, just take out the hammer and beat in into submission

On the other hand, complete errorchecking, defraging and changing the internet cashe to be less than 1gb are always good ideas. Not sure about the internet one thou, it works good for me. ;0)

Listen freak, if this is linux crap, I don't want to hear it. As for Office, it is brand spanking new, it is crashes next time you open word, there will be a side bar with the 'recovered document'.

Hardware wise I eastimate on the current hardware I have it's $1200.00, but who knows. Software wise, maybe a few games I payed for, by nothing else. For the record, I wouldn't want that XT shoved up my ass none less use it.
