I just finished reading an article in Forbes magazine where the author is discussing what microsoft does in order to get us to purchase their operating systems. Over the years I have used three of their systems and purchased other programs with their label on them. At the present time I am using microsoft XP and I'm very happy with it. One of my sons purchased Vista when it first hit the mar...

My daughter-in-laws, sons, and granddaughter are all on Facebook and they insisted that I join and put my information on "my wall". We used to email each other and pass the latest news around, but not anymore. It seems that I have to get on Facebook to find out what is going on. Personally I'd rather use email. In an article that I was reading about Facebook, it mentioned Mark Pincus, of Zyn...

Something similar happens to me all the time, I just delete the message and never open it or follow their instructions. Someone is probably trying to get you vital information. I'd delete it.

There are some people who make big money on PTC sites. Probably 95% of the sites are scams or they just dry up. If a person has the patience and knows the ropes they can make money. I know of one site where some are making four and five figure incomes, it has been around a long time and the administrator runs a legitiment program. I tried a few sites that turned out to be scams and they didn't ...

I've always wondered what a person who is an atheist believes they see in their future. I don't believe in re-incarnation but I do believe there is a God who put all of this together. Some believe that we evolved from other animals like apes and maybe we did. Have you ever stopped to think about how well your body was put together? They say it consists mostly of water and that may be true, but ...

My son seemed to think Vista was crap also. I'm happy with XP and I think I'll stick with it. Thanks for the info.

Personally I have nothing against the Vista software. I only know what I have read about it and the experience my son had with it. I'm glad it is working ok for you. Several years ago I was thinking about going to "Linux" and even bought the "Red Hat" software, but I changed my mind when Microsoft came out with "ME" and I had some problems with that upgrade. I'm used to XP and it seems to work ...

It looks like you ran the same track that I ran. I started with DOS,Win3.1,98,ME I think ME was the worst for me. I'm happy with XP and will probably stay with it. Two of my sons had the same problem with Vista and had to upgrade to 7. It looks like a good "rip-off" plan for Microsoft.

I was hooked on a couple of other sites, so I know what that is like. I'm a city person but my wife grew up on a farm, maybe she would enjoy playing FarmVille, she has her own computer. I'm not too happy with Facebook.

I think one of my grandsons plays mafia wars, I don't know what level 375 means but it must be pretty good. I tried to get on my Facebook page a while ago and it seems that my password didn't work, I'll try again later.
