    No matter what happens, Microsoft is going to be completely bloated.  One thing I

    did find awhile back that was interesting is that Microsoft is moving its UI out of the kernel.  Probably the

    smartest thing Microsoft could have done for themselves.  This is one of the reasons Linux and other Unix based

    OS's (excluding the MacOS) run so well.  When the UI crashes, it can be restarted without shutting down

    the entire system.  If this proves to be true, Vista will run a whole lot smoother.

    Everyone is a

    little bit leary about running new software right after it comes out, because invariably, the best testing that can

    be done on a piece of software is done by the user community, rather than some QA bitch within the company. 

    This is not to say that QA people dont do their job well.  You'd be surprised what is caught in QA prior

    to release.  However, there is almost ALWAYS some unique way of doing something that the QA person didnt think

    of.  Users, as much as we think they're id10t's, are quite handy with QA.

    Good points.  Nah, the hosting costs shouldnt be that much, esp if we split the cost.  A three way

    split would be even better.  As soon as Craig gets back to me with a quote, I'll know more. 

    Danny, if we cant host both domains, any issues with hosting as a subdomain of Mightor Industries?  Its

    already set up, all I have to do is give you the FTP info.

    No problem, I'll email Craig and see what he can do for you for a three year deal.

    I was just looking at the packages at GoDaddy.  If you consider hosting all three sites under one web

    hosting package (assuming we can do so), I wouldnt be adverse to upgrading the hosting package to the Deluxe

    package, which would double our space and bandwidth, as well as give us tons of features and Google AdWords, which

    would be helpful.  Just a thought.  If thats not a route you want to go with, I'll call Craig at

    GoDaddy and see what he can do for you at my recommendation.  He might be able to get you a sweet deal.

    I just sent GoDaddy an email regarding hosting of several domains with one web host.  If I can get a

    good deal on hosting all three domains, would you rather do that, than having a separate hosting package for Attic

    Inc?  Might be cheaper than having a separate hosting package.  Im waiting to hear back.  As soon as

    I hear something, I'll let you know.

    I dont know if its even possible to do, but it would be sweet to find out what it would cost to host several

    domains under the same web hosting package.  Be a hell of a lot easier to maintain.  Why the switch for

    Attic Inc?  $$$?

    GoDaddy has some incredible deals.  For example, for this site, for two months, I only paid $10, and Ive

    got tons of sweet ass features.  Mightor Industries will be up for renewal shortly, but they've already

    offered me a hellasweet package.  I could check to see what it would cost to host two domains with the same web

    hosting package, then the three of us could split the cost.

    Just a thought.

    (which I havent seen in a long time due to overwatching it in jr high).

    LMAO!  Way to work in the L33t sP3@k into your posts.  If we had mod

    points, I'd mod you up just for that.

    I saw this and couldnt pass it up.  Read the comments.  There's a post in here about Steve

    Ballmer F**king killing something.  Someone posted that they thought USB killed SCSI.  There's also

    some good info on SCSI vs SATA.

    Enjoy.

    Yeah, I think it was a chicken sandwich.  In fact, I think it was a buffalo chicken sandwich but dont quote me on that, because its been so long I dont remember.  Come to think of it, I don't think I remember what happened 10 minutes ago.  I was probably dinking around in this forum somewhere, LOL!!

    Thats a hell of a list.  Although most of them are duplicates.  My favorite one on the list has to

    be nun-chucks, with real nuns.  Also, they should add chili that contains a lot of beans.  That in itself

    is a deadly weapon.  Especially if you light that sucker on fire.

    Small correction, its slashdot.org, although you can get to Slashdot from slashdot.com.  Good thing too,

    because otherwise, lots of people would be disappointed. 

    Anyway, my day wouldnt be complete

    without at least 5 visits to Slashdot throughout the day to see whats new.  I often frequent the main page,

    developers and ask slashdot sections.  Although, I almost always go for a good story if it peaks my interest,

    no matter what section its in.

    I have to say, that is the first time I have ever come across that site, and I dont think Ive laughed so hard

    in my life.  Good link on Steve Ballmer.  I cant stand that guy.
