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 !

Anyone try loading Windows 7 Ultimate on the netbook yet? I have a spare copy and would rather run that than 7 starter.

My roomie doesn't like the starter, so told me to upgrade, but I have no clue what ultimate is!! I am an accountant, so just need the basics!!
I'm not proficient in the various Win7 versions, but I know that starter is basically an intentionally crippled OS. I'd say go for the upgrade.

Anyone know the max memory the netbook can take? I was unable to find the specs in Samsungs website.
Intel specs on the N455 say 2gb

Has anyone been contacted by Marlboro about being a possible winner yet? I talked to a rep at Marlboro and he said that if I haven't heard anything by February 18th to call back, I was wondering if this was the date that they would announce the winners or start contacting the winners. Just curious if any of the SD crew won. Good Luck!!

p.s. I don't know which version of Win7 starter shipped, but if you're upgrading you should be able to go with 64bit version (N455 supports 64 bit, and I'm successfully running 64 bit Linux)

[EDIT] I see my recovery media is 32 bit, so I assume that's what it ships with.

Have you checked the "Find me a deal Forum" I have never used it, but heard it is great!! Just put in what you are looking for, and the lowest price you found so far, and people will let you know if they find a better price!!

It is absolutely gorgeous, but I am waiting for a 67 Baracuda!! But, I also have to say that my favorite car I had was a 70 Cutlass Supreme, cherry red with white vinyl top!! Oh boy, memories are coming back! It sure made my Fiat Sport Spider Convertible look like a piece of crap!! Wow, I love good cars!
There's a absolutely georgeous red 70 Cutlass in Reno on E-bay, 4k.

Is that why my roomie said a 32 bit version won't suppoert 4G ram? He said the 64 would, but to me, he was speaking Greek!!

That sure is purdy, but not a Baracuda, and if I get another Cutlass, has to have a white top!! My favorite car, can't sway from my specifics!!

wave dab wave I would just go to the top right of the page & use the search box & see what shows up. Are those things pretty expensive? I have cable, so never priced them? Don't you get one when you sign up for Directv?

That's true, but the Atom cpu will only address 2gb regardless of the OS.

This is super cheap compared to all the other sites, just want to make sure I can use it with the netbook. I know nothing about this stuff, and my roomie left for work already!
