Is There Sill Space for CDSpace?

At the place where I work, we have recently switched most of our computers from Win98 SE to Win XP Pro, and we can't get CDSpace, from Space International to work on our machines.

Suggestions, anyone? Please leave them in 'Comments' or e-mail me!

Dell Dilema

About a year ago I got a Dell Dimension 3000. It was working fine until now. It started acting up, telling me programs weren't working properly, etc.

Well, now I'm mad. My computer keeps deleting my files unless I have them in compressed folders. I called Dell, trying to get their help, since I have a two year warranty, and they told me there was nothing they could do.

If there is anyone out there who suffered similar problems, PLEASE TELL ME!!! Maybe we could start a computer support group...

Windows vs. Apple

vs.

A comparison of the two leading computer programming systems.

Windows, I find easier to navigate than Apple. It also has a classier look. This may just be me, because I'm used to Windows, as my computer has Windows XP, but the mouse on an Apple computer is crappy! I mean, it's one button! And click and draaaaag...

Apple, on the other hand, has better programming. I notice that when I'm using it, it freezes less, and is faster. Most Apples have larger hard drives, too.

One thing that people don't realize is that you can have Windows and Apple on the same computer. My friend has Linux (another operating system) on her C: drive, but has Windows 2000 on her D: drive.

Game Review

This Week's Game: NHL '99

An excellent game for all people 10+.

Available almost nowhere anymore, because it's quite old, though it can be found at many garage sales, this game is your typical hockey game, though it isn't as good as the new versions, it can be found MUCH CHEAPER! I got mine at a garage sale for $0.25!!
