As long as you have Windows media player 10 or higher you can use it to
rip your cds into MP3 format. You just have to goto the options and set
to rip in MP3 format, then adjust your bit rate to no less than 128kbs
for descent quality. Then you'll be ready to rip without downloading a
third party app.

According to my information (as all on this post), The first deal that
Bill made with IBM for a gui, was a great turning point in the history
of software for the computer.

Allow me to ask your opinion.
Who do you like better? And why?
I will give a rundown list after a few posts.
Of course this is not necessaryly including the fact that Bill
leagueally stole Steves' Desingers ideas (os code) to make windows.

If that's true P , then who does that edify?

Here is a link to all of the commericials.

Here is a site that has a list of sites that have videos, movies, and tv
shows.

Here is a list of game downloads also.

I am not familiar with the IM that we may be discussing here.
Is it a downloaded and installed app, or does this IM run inside it's
own window like a mini browser?
Yahoo has a mini IM browser version that runs right off the net. It has
to have a form of java, or flash player, enabled just to work.
Your problem might be that you need to download the newest java or flash
player version, just to use the 'IM browser'.

Here is a great place to check out all of the new flavors of linux.

True that.
There are alot of quick relaesed linux type progs written in open source
by peeps that aren't even concerned about security.(Some are just happy
that they actually wrote thier own OS) I see what you mean. If a newbie
installed one of them instead of one of the good ones that you mentioned
then they would be messed up. Thanks for the added info.

nascarcutey:
If you are useing windows, then antivir is a good free antivirus. Works
pretty well.
By the way, linux does have antivirus progs, but I have yet to find a
need for one useing Linux.

You can check out this new Linux realease

It's not Lindows, but it's better.

The awesome one that I have found is located here.

Also, yes real geeks in the real world do use linux.
Useing the KDE GUI interface, it is very simmiler to the 'windows feel'.
Alot of Apps are the same, and even alot of the high dollar windows apps
that you buy, has a free version included in Linux.
Ex. Microsoft office is around $300 bucks. However, open office included
in most linux OSs is free.

Check out the press release of this awesome desktop OS.

http://www.mandriva.com/company/press/pr/mandriva_linux_2007_spring_spring_is_here

This is an awesome OS, even in the version that I am useing.

Correct.
There is no box 100% secure. Any computer can be hacked into.
Nowadays alot of banks use windows with only a 128bit encription.
More and more people are useing linux everyday. And yes I am accruate
when I say linux is more secure.
By the way, Linux is superior, so there is nothing false about that
statment.
I have heard of guild wars but never have played it. I think that I have
actually seen a version just for linux. If not, I'm pretty sure that it
can be easily configured with 'wine'.
Once configured, you can start the game just like a regular windows
executeable.

I'm sorry, my point is that linux is not that easyly cracked like
windows. Fact. No matter what people use.
As far as game compatiblity, I havn't found a game yet that cannot be
played on linux useing 'wine'.(even my cracked D2 with hero editor). I
own the game, I just cracked it so that when I wanted to play, I
wouldn't have to load a disk.

True, but most popular or not, linux will always be more secure than
windows.( it's in the code).
There are 10s of thousands of more viruses for windows than they are
linux.

LOL
OK I'll play.
I kicked my bestfriend because I am a power ranger.
LOL
meat you 2

How secure does windows users think that they really are?
Linux users bring up facts that prove that it isn't.
Why do you think that microsoft had to hire hackers to help secure thier
new Win Vista operating system?



one example link
http://blogs.zdnet.com/threatchaos/?p=311

It seems to be getting to the point that all of the windows restrictions
are just helping the non secure issues because it makes it harder for
third party apps to help the secure process. Problems that the OS should
already have addressed on it's own.

I had this problem also. It caused me to double post.
It seems to be fixed now though.
Thanks Mike.

Some small bartering does still exist today.(useally between friends or
associates.)
Our green money that we use nowadays is just another part of our gov
controlling our barter.
Witch has paved a path to greed.
