Not sure what it is. Likes to just throw up a crappy display or the blue screen of death then restart. Not sure if it is the free computer or the Vista Ultima.

Well, I'm not very computer savvy, so I won't be much help!

Howdy Chris.. I think the same. Just got my cable /internet bill. It went up another $3 and no improvement in program. I have about 70 channels and internet and they charge just under $120 a month. I am about ready to ditch it all and then I won't need a computer upgrade.

but Steve, a person can only be abused for so long. It raised $2 a few months ago and no new benefits. And one raise really teed me off. $4 and they took away the TV guide channel. At this rate there are no HD channel even.

Heck I would settle for AT&T DSL if they had it in my area. I could have that, satelite tv and my cell for for less than cable and internet. And have more channels and HD

I could get Direct TV from someone else and their cable internet, but again they want close to $70 for just the internet.
