I use the trackpad on my laptop. If I'm home then I'll use my wacom tablet and the wireless mouse that came with it. I've been itching to get the new bluetooth wacom tablet. I hate having clutter and wires all over my desk.

What Is...the Better Shipping Company UPS, DHL, or Fedex?
unfortunate replied to C2C's topic in General Discussion
I use Fedex for anything valuable. I've shipped a few laptops without any problems via Fedex. I don't even trust USPS (the post office) for anything other then mail. From past experience, UPS has had some delivery problems. -
Well I guess it really isn't a big deal. I just found it odd that I was reset to something like 1.9. I guess it makes sense that after being approved for hosting you would need to rebuild your credits just to make sure you stick around after getting approved without banking on a huge cushion.

My old P3 has a 30gig HD. My Powerbook has 80 and my iBook has another 30. Lately I've been using my iBook as a backup for all my pictures and important documents. I've been itching to get a huge external firewire HD. I want something over 200. I want to rip all my DVD's to a HD so I can take them around with me anywhere.

How To Get Gmail Without Invitations It works really
unfortunate replied to hayri's topic in The Internet
midnightvamp is referring to the original invite spooler http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ I usually send my invites there. I think i've donated a few hundred. Whenever I'm bored I take the time to empty out all my invites in my account. -
I stumbled upon this link earlier today and was hoping someone could explain or walk me through getting the script running. http://ponderer.org/del.icio.us I'll keep the post short since I have no clue as to what I should. I'll just say that I rarely work on WinXP and I would rather get it running on my old win box sitting in the corner.

Hmm I can't really say that I do or don't enjoy using WinXP. I have to say that I like it a whole lot better over WindowsME which was the last MS operating system that I ran (Vaio sr-33 laptop). I starting using OSX 3 years ago so my expectations have raised a little bit as far as what I expect from an operating system. I have to admit that I enjoy the graphical interface that OSX offers. I can't say that I'm disappointed in Windows. I've never had a fatal crash that caused loads of data loss. I've never been infected with a virus. I've had to deal with my share of spyware/malware though. Easy enought o clean up with adaware and spybot. I discovered that WinXP ships with a lot of services running that the average users has no need for. By turning almost everything off my pc runs a lot better then what it did after a clean reformat. Anyway, I said 'no comment'. I don't really have a reason to bad mouth WinXP, but I don't really have anything to gloat about.

https://www.engadget.com/2005/05/16/engadget-amp-joystiqs-live-coverage-of-sonys-playstation-3/ I'll spare the actual details since I'm sure most of you know the gist. The one main feature that I'm looking forward to is bluray support. It's also going to have DVD+R/W and CD-R/RW support I know there was another thread a little earlier but it was for images... Not the actual release info.

I used to frequent gmailforums to find a gmail invite back in May of last year. I left as soon as the waves of invites started flowing because the only posts that seemed to come up were from users looking for invites. Real discussion rarely happened. Most of the serious members from that forum actually moved to Google groups. If anyone is looking for some gmail related talk should check out Gmail-Generation and Gmail-Lounge.. both run and maintained by some of the original veteran users from GF. (including me LD )

Gmail As Your Storage scripts can be found anywhere, free
unfortunate replied to BuffaloHelp's topic in The Internet
I created a new Gmail account for Roamdrive. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ The only thing I liked about it was that it went in and created a label in my account so that uploaded files were nicely organized without me having to set up a filter myself. (Even though it is pretty easy to create your own filter). The serious downside of the program was that it required Internet Explorer (not sure if it has changed since I tried it a few weeks back). -
Passing The Time With Google Images Guess-the-Google game
unfortunate replied to serverph's topic in Search Engines
There is also a similar version powered by Flickr images: http://error.burningbird.net/404.html You can choose what size board you want to play with... I think I prefer the Flickr game over the Google one. -

Google Video - Allow Upload?! not search for video but host it??
unfortunate replied to lamode's topic in Search Engines
The important key here that I think people are going to over look is the fact that the video uploads must be approved before Google "hosts" them. It's not like people are going to be able to upload hd broadcast tv shows that they recorded with their TiVo or downloaded off of bittorrent.
