I have understood a lot about frank from the stuff he tells others..

 

he is quite transparent.. but that's why Im not mad with the fellow...

 

I would help him any time, and indeed I could help him.

 

But the only problem is that he is too negative even to accept help...

Here's my experience. Vista runs brilliantly on my PC. I don't care what

others say, it's only their experience/opinion.

Has the writer of this article seen my PC working? No, so how can he know

how well it's working here?

 

Once again you have posted total irrelevence.

Re: an MVP upgrade?

 

MVPs stink, most of the time they give bad and polarized advice,

inaccuracies.. they would not be an MVP if they didn't kiss some MS but...

 

With me on the other hand, you get quality advice, without me needing to

kneel for vista.

Ask your primary care physician to increase your medication. Your

When you figure out how to find your way back to that mental institution

you've escaped from, let us all know. Our kids will then be safer.

He always does. I think the nurse left the computer unlocked and he hobbled

over to it and started to type. I'll send the nurse a request to keep the

restraints fastened so he can't do that again.

You could help? I think you are mistaken. That white coat you are wearing

belongs to the doctor. Tell the nurse to give it back to him and get your

"straight jacket" fitted again.

 

Also, have your bed adjusted so you can see outside. The medicine cup next

to your bed needs to be refilled and your water cup should be changed. Get

with the program.

Ok...here's the deal.

You've got 72 hrs in which to try and find your own arse.

You can have the lights on and you may use both hands (if needed!).

Ready, set...go!!!

Quality advice? Yea, right. Go to any prison in the country and you will

also get quality advice. Don't quit your day job over at BestBuy. Check

with the manager because there are about 4 or 5 more machines you need to

fix before clocking out.

All wrong.

You got it all wrong. 33 is your IQ. Your real age is 15.

The moral is - keep your software up to date. Funny how it didn't affect

me?

Go ahead, ask me if I care

I have told you that I do not hate vista... yet you dont seem to understand

this.

Stop telling your own story about this, It is not true. I don NOT hate

vista.

 

Think for a moment frank.. put your little brain cells to work. If I cant

hate you after all the crap that you have thrown at me,

how could I hate vista that is just an inanimate program? lol

 

I am incapable of hate...

 

People who hate are ignorant... I always try to analyze things and find the

underlying truth behind appearances.
