  1. I am not sure if I fully get what you are saying. Do you mean help as in with computers or something? A forum would do the same thing. Everyone could post multiple maybe different ways to help that way the person has a choice and maybe find a way that suits them or makes it easier for them. If one doesn't work then they can just try the next. When people e-mail their answer to the question asked it might not be very helpful and the person might not tell the admins that they had helped them out. When people post their support they get hosting credits anyway. It would probably be too much work. This is just my opinion though.


  2. Well it really depends how often you would use the laptop in you classes. If you want to upgrade your computer I would buy a desktop. Laptops aren't really meant to be upgraded. If you plan on using your computer at school well then yes purchase a laptop but if you aren't going to use it much there is really no point. I personally have a laptop and I am in high school and I bring it to take notes and all and it's very helpful. Desktops are good for playing games and stuff. If you want a good graphics card for your laptop you might want to buy an expensive one that has one so you don't have to upgrade. It's really up to what you are going to use your computer for. Good Luck!


  3. I normally have my computer on all the time I am awake. Considering I have a laptop though if I leave it on for too long and it is on like a rug it burns up and kills the motherboard. It happened to my brother. If I go somewhere I normally just fold down the screen to put it in sleep mode. I only have it shut down when I go to school or if I'm sleeping. There is really no point for me to have it on all day. it only takes 2 minutes for it to start up and log on. I'll leave it on if I want to keep something open though, like if I am working on something.


  4. For me it's not the problem that I can't sleep or don't want to sleep, it's the fact I don't have enough time to sleep. I get up to get ready for school at 5:30 in the morning. I go to school and normally don't get home until 5:00 in the evening because my mom can't pick me up until she gets off work. I do my homework and can't get to bed until like 10:00. This only gives me 7 and a half hours to sleep. lol I do that all week and now that the sun comes up earlier, it wakes me up earlier on the weekends. Last night was the first full night of sleep I got of 10 hours. :) made me happy. Most teenagers like to sleep and sleep all day. Most people I know love to sleep.


  5. I sent them an email telling them that the largest known prime number is 11111111111111111......... until you get to 10 million characters. Who knows. I bet if you through a couple zeros in there you will get it. I would really laugh it it was a prime number. Imagine trying to figure out it it is. They would have to divide it by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 ect to get to it. Actually they could skip every multiple of 5 and 10. It would take years to figure it out.


  6. This game is much better than all of the other Grand Theft Auto games combined. I love how you can get stronger by working out and stuff and everything that has to do with your player is fully customizable. It is fun to go through all of the missions. The other games I would use cheats to make the cars fly and all and just mess around.


  7. I am not really sure which I perfer. I like the computers not made by Mac but I like some of the resources Mac has to offer. I haven't used it that much but they seem to have better resources like Imovies and Mac Dreamweaver. I do like windows though too because I think it is easier to get around and stuff like that. I really have no preference but I have windows and I use it most and that's what I am stuck with.


  8. Wait Wait! lol Mine has changed since earlier today. Now I am downloading 18 percent faster then the average of what my internet provider's average is. I guess my computer was just running slower earlier??? I am not sure this is my new download stats.

  9. Wow what a question! My computer is my life lol. I talk to my friends, get hw from them when I forgot to do it :) . I like making web sites, playing games etc; If computers were to just disappear I would be very disappointed and bored throughout my life. I would have to stick to TV and using other things, and I'd probably hang outside more often. If we never had computers we would never know that something like this could have existed though so we wouldn't really miss anything.


  10. Well things aren't looking to good. I have Road Runner high speed internet from Bright House Networks. My internet has been running very slow lately and I guess this shows. 28% of what my download time should be. That's pretty sad. At least my upload time is 20% faster than the regular upload time of a road runner user.

  11. I have been thinking about going to Japan. Of course I am to young, don't have the money, and speak English but it would be fun. I know they have a dense population but I'd like to see what it would be like to live there. They have the best technology. If I didn't go there I'd try Ireland. I did a report on Ireland in 4th grade. I learned a lot and it has a cool landscape and lots of museums and places to visit.


  12. When I was maybe 11 or 12 I would use cheats not to beat the game but so I can unlock everything in free mode or whatever. I normally like to play the game as it was meant to be played, without cheats. Instead of using a cheat I use walkthroughs to guide me through something or as an example of what i could do. I normally don't though, it's only if I get stuck. What's the point of cheating in a game to beat it. It takes all the fun out of the game.


  13. When I was like nine or ten I played pokemon. I used to think it was the coolest thing in the world. I never really liked the show though. I collected all the cards and stuff. I also bought a pokemon pinball, pokemon red, blue, yellow, and silver for gameboy. It was fun for a while but after about a year I quit. It was ok for a little while but gets boring.
