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 !

where you the lucky person who won the laptop from circuit city/ tiger direct/ compusa back a few months ago???

if so how your luck, great for you!!

forget this post, I just read the answer to my question. good for you, I'm glad you now have something more manageable
great for you!! my netbook is just the right size to take with me. thanks to all here for all the help!!
Well, thanks for the good wishes, anyway! I couldn't believe my luck, either! lol I literally couldn't believe it, right, cw? Yeah, this nb will be perfect. Now all I need to do is read all the prior posts in regards to it. I don't suppose anyone has set up a wiki w/pointers, cheap cases, etc?
I do have a quick ?? - while I understand the need for partitions, do I really need one on the netbook? I don't foresee storing info on it. I just read mvario discussing it recently but of course it didn't pertain to me. shake head

oh, that was so sweet of you! You certainly don't need to waste your time, though! It looks like they post them in a random order, so there is no easy way to vote. It's just too time consuming! I'll let you know if I hear back from customer support with an answer. Hopefully they'll fix the problem - until then, just don't waste your time!

Honey, for all you do on here, helping you win a contest is not a waste of time. I hope I voted for the right cat, found her on 17 a few minutes ago. Pretty sure it was the pic you posted earlier!! I still have 9 more votes, if I voted for the wrong one by mistake

Quote from cwhetme :
Have you heard anything about Samknows and the FCC thing where they give you a free wireless router?? They are sending me one. I was scared at first that they would try to track what all I do online but they dont need a router to do that. They are supposedly tracking actual isp speeds to see if people are being cheated. I pay for 10 and every time I do a speed check its always under 5. I called AT&T and they said I pay for UP to 10. Then I found out that 10 isnt even availible in my area even tho thats what I pay for but they told me if I lower it down to what is available here I will get even slower. I got mad enough when I ordered a wireless router and they sent me a single port POS I paid $70 for. Went to Walmart and found it for $25!! https://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.php?sduid=1050069&t=2625783
I did that questionnaire also, said I qualified, not sure if that meant they were sending me one. Is it wireless? I wasn't sure. Would be nice if it were 802.11n since the netbook interface supports that, the one I have is just b/g

But, yeah, the FCC really needs to get on the carriers here, we have some of the worst rated Internet among all the countries in the world (surprising, huh?)

I can REALLY empathise (?sp) with you there. Kept using the PC mouse when meaning to use the netbook one. The keyboard takes a bit of getting used to.
