It took him almost 40 seconds to take a bite.

I was waiting for him to unhinge his jaw like a snake.

for Mac I have no idea about the inner working of the stupid OS. Takes me forever to figure out to do a simple task. my boss loves Macs so I am forced to learn things about it but I always think of it as such a friggin pain because I know the same thing on PC will take 1/4 of the time.
Windows 7 is sweet. So far only one old program wasn't compatible but it's only because it's old.


did you try changing the compatibility mode for the program? (right click the .exe, properties, compatibility amd you'll find the options there)

Because Microsoft rocks, we gave you Windows XP free. What do you mean free!? You can run full featured XP virtualized on your Windows 7 and that will allow you to run your legacy applications if compatibility doesn’t work.

Feel free to change your underwear now.

I am running Vista, XP, and Linux virtual PCs within my Win7, without any problems.

If you can find Office 2011 Beta 4 (or just ask me nicely), I find it CRAZY stable. I’m shocked, actually.
