You did tell me about the hard drive but i didnt think it would be 6 gigs. The scanner because since omnipage pro came out i thoguth they also made a scanning software for scanners on osx. The scanner insident was kind of long ago. I loove the help this web site gives me. just asking other ppls opinion calm down.

Ed: He probably heard you were wrong 99% of the time.

Vanguard

PS For anybody wondering, this is a running joke between Ed and I.

I wish companies would sell monitors naming them after the actual resolution you can get instead of lying about the size of the viewable image by measuring the thing internally. I wish they wouldn't call processors something like XP 1800+ when they're running at 1.5 GHz. I wish Apple would never have said the iMac has 5 USB ports. And I wish nobody would ever lie. You think you lost 6 GB? Bring the baby back, then.

I guess car makers will define a new kinda mile or kilometre and call it the 'car-based relative mile', so they can claim better results...

Delete 6 GB (whatever 'kind' of GB) of quicktime movies you don't need anymore and you're set.

you guys know Rodney Dangerfield is my older brother don't you?

neither one of us ever gets any respect.

points of fact - the site rules do state that vanguard is in charge of pointing out that i am wrong 99% of the time. I am left to prove the other 1% on my own. Occasionally RacerX helps me with that.

second - testuser is slowly but surely learning the entire DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual). There are several states in which he will be able to set up practice as a general therapist after this.

the likelyhood that i will find uncritical followers on this site is approximately a googelplex to one.

making scott laugh is reward enough.

I do love this site and the people here. It is a unique place with unique people. I would miss it if it were to suddenly disappear. It is probably sad how much i enjoy the comraderie here. I should probably get friends who live closer to me. But people here keep my mind working and learning so i am not really motivated to do that.

eric - sorry to pick on you personally but this one just really pushed my buttons. 74 or 75 - what's the difference with that many gigs?

now when you post about what troubles you are having with that 80gb hd and how long it takes to search and repair and....then i am just going to fill your thread with laughing smilies

maybe i've just been listening to too much Alice Cooper -
"no more mister nice guy, no more mister cleeean,
no more mister nice guy, he's sick - he's obsceeeene"

I always envisioned you being related to NBA Star Latrell Sprewell. I know you're name isn't pronounced like that, and you're a white guy, but it's fun to imagine.
