jzerbini @jzerbini (97) • United States 12 Jul 07

jzerbini It really depends on how much research and money you want to put into it. I built my own machine and I love it. I didn't pay for anything I didn't want (such as a memory card reader or whatever) Also in many cases a computer may come with more of one thing and...

jzerbini I actually like vista better, the big thing is just getting use to it. Your machine is not crashing because it has vista on it. There is something else going on there. Dell probably sold you a machine with a bunch of apps already installed. I have had vista...

jzerbini Its a new operating system so its not going to be in use everywhere. If you have extra devices check the manufacturers sites and make sure they have vista drivers. I have been using vista for a while now and like it, I had trouble at first but just because i...

jzerbini Its most likly not a problem with your registry that is making it slow. The number one reason I have seen for a slow computer is to many processes running at one time. The easiest way to fix this is go to start run then type msconfig. Go to the startup tab...

Did you or if given a chance to go back in time,would you marry your first love?

smints8985 @smints8985 (1594) • United States 2 Jul 07

For those that are still single, maybe the ones who's never been in a relationship ever, would you want or consider ending up with the first person you are going to be with? If you are already married/in a relationship, have you...

jzerbini Personally I never would and happy I didn't. Some people tend to grow apart and others grow together. I think people that start dating young and stay together do so because they grow together. What I mean is if you hang out with someone you tend to pick up...

SMOak99 @SMOak99 (176) • India 26 Jun 07

jzerbini Well to become an expert in a specific set of software to the point no body knows more than you, I would say you would almost have to be the developer yourself. People can become pretty good at certain types of software but I wouldn't think a consumer or...

homosexuality: nature or nurture? is it a problem?

fightingistheonlyway @fightingistheonlyway (2658) • Canada 28 Jun 07

jzerbini I agree with you that it may not be a problem but more a mental problem. Thats kinda what I was getting at. If you look at us as a species rather than humans, if you had a breed of animal that refused to reproduce you would probably say it had some type of...

jzerbini I have had a similar problem with my job, while I like it here (don't love it) I think I could be making more, but at the same time I would have to give up a lot. I have been casually looking to try and find something I like as well as pays good. I think you...

jzerbini Gas here in western PA is about 2.95, I can't be sure about milk....3 something though. With the rising prices in gas you can expect the prices in just about everything to go up eventually. I mean what product is there (other than local ones) that don't use...

jzerbini Beer isn't that bad in moderation, a little bit of alcoholic drinks can actually be good for you. For many people its more of a social thing, thats mostly what it is for me.

jzerbini A bath always helps for fleas or a flea comb. For ticks I just heard a way to get them out that doesn't hurt or involve to much trouble. Put some vasaline on a tissue and put it over the tick, this stops it from being about to breath and it will pull its head...
