Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

Which distro did he use? Ubuntu? I might install both gnowm and xde. Ubuntu Netbook uses Unity which I don't know if I like (and which Natty is going to use as default instead of Gnome). Ah decisions. I might just try PinGuy distribution, it's based on Ubuntu and I've read nice things about it. I'm pretty sure it uses Gnome. Either way it saves a lot of work installing extras.

I'm betting that I get stuff from the Snus Challenge before I get my boots. I'm sure those ear buds will ship before April.

Yeah, remind me to be careful when the prize is actually a certificate to present to the manufacturer. That way no one takes responsibility for any sort of timely delivery.



No, laugh out loud it was a blog giveaway., though I think McCormick supplied the prize and shipped it.
Sorry about that. I fell asleep there for a bit. Im not too familiar with that stuff. Like I said he had to dumb it down for me. At first I thought he was talking about a desktop back ground!! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

okay, you've got a valid point. I didn't know we were getting MS office. But it would be nice to get regular windows 7 instead of starter, and 2 gb of ram since everyone says it runs too slow with just 1. I know.....why in the world would i complain about something i'm getting for free. Just sayin'....I'm just getting anxious waiting for my netbook.

Quote from talonts :
Very few netbooks default to 2Gig. And many people would rather have W7 Starter than something higher that might bog it down (not me, I was running the W7 Ultimate beta on a 512MB iPAQ desktop and loving it).

But yeah, it's like me complaining that the camera flash has to be manually flipped up, it doesn't have a spring-loaded button Big GrinBig Grin
OK- The UPS guy just left. You must be good luck! I got my netbook. YAY. It is upgraded. has 250gb hard drive ddr3 instead of ddr2. It's charging now while I read about it. Also, why were people saying the 8gb SD disk included doesn't work with this netbook. It fits in this one (It does stick out instead of being flush). So people get ready-they are coming!!bouncebouncebounce

Let it warm up. And don't say "OK" if you netbook wants to format the SD card.
