    If someone tells you to sudo rm -rf ANYTHING, then DO NOT DO IT!

    Don't run any command with rm in it unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing.

    What people dont realise is that Vista cant run applications or games anyway, it just sits there and looks pretty

    Well who needs more anyway ? Aero is the best looking vista game so far.
    This is so funny but at least they are honest.
    Why can't technology be as simple as the box it comes in ?

    i feel really old then, because i remember upgrading an apple from 8K (yes, that's K, not M) to 16K, and my professor saying "i don't know what we'll do with all this memory".
