Computer problems, what a drag.

That's why I went to a MAC and no problems the last 7 years.

I've never really had too many problems with my PC's...the only thing I'm not crazy about is the new IE...seems glitchy with some things like Flash but all in all, fairly good. Mac's are alright - but they never seemed to be what I needed...

It's a matter of personal preference, I don't play computer games and that's the Mac's weak point since there are not as much games for, but I can run anything on my Mac as a PC since it's and Intel Duo core processor. I could run a Microsoft operating system but why?

Try mozilla firefox its a nice internet browser its free and you can download different plug in's. right now i am running ad block plus so i can block ads on sites i frequently go to. since i have a old computer the pages load faster without a crap load of ads loading up.

I have to get around to downloading firefox - just to try it out.

Chris - you're right about preferences...and I've always used PC's for everything so I'm comfy there. Not to say I wouldn't at least consider a Mac at some point down the road.

I second the firefox, it sure beats running IE or Safari.

Bill. my work computer is a PC, because that's what is provided for me and I can tell you if you can operate a PC a MAC will be easier. I'm just turned off at Microsoft's operating systems.

Nothing personal here, but better y'all than me. I can survive just fine without any.

Good morning Chris. You got way more than we did. We probably wound up with 1 to 1-1/2 inches. Enough for this season. It can go back to being warm again!
