  1. I was thinking of pilfering some wine from my roommates, but for now I think I'm gonna go out and grab something to eat

    May or may not celebrate with some friends later - but to be honest, I think i will be stuck writing the opus :sad: so celebrations may have to wait

    Next year i will be able to do it properly in a bar!!! :beer1:

    Pilfered wine tastes so much sweeter...

    Hope you have a great day whatever you're doing. :)

  2. Thanx for the leftover Cheesecake. Didn't even notice it's lights on the eggies :lol:

    I have to admit it went down rather well regardless of the half measures. I might even make it that way in future... lol

    So what are you doing to legally celebrate your not quite coming of age yet?

  3. Don't even have to wipe it, really. One slick thing in Vista is that you can set up a separate partition from within the OS.

    Set up a second partition, install XP, or go nuts and try linux.

    That is handy... and good to know that they managed 'one slick thing'.

    I get a strange sense of satisfaction if something I dislike is completely wiped out... no trace.

  4. I will investigate. Then again, I will probably stick with dual booting Vista and Ubuntu. I am terrible with Linux but it's fun to explore.

    Linux is fun and apparently a lot easier to use these days... and you can dual boot it with XP too. There goes that excuse... just admit it... you love Vista!

  5. I was told they dont have the drivers to run XP on this computer. I was stupid for buying it, should have shopped around. I will just borrow Windows 7 soon and run that. Vista isn't "bad" but I expected more.

    Drivers are part of the OS as far as I'm aware... so if you wipe one off and replace it with another... it should install it's own drivers. It'd probably void your guarantee though.
