Oh, I dunno, it was just this little 2" long lizard I spotted on the bluffs above the beach somewhere north of San Simeon, CA when i was driving home from the Monterey Historics last year. I can't believe i got him to hold still - the camera lens was maybe 4" from him...

It is common for them to drag their knees, that is why they have those huge knee protectors. Sometimes they get low enough to drag their elbows, talk about traction.

right click on an empty spot > uncheck "lock taskbar"

open a couple windows.

click & drag the line next to the quicklaunch bar above the normal bars, or drag the normal bar line below the quicklaunch bars.

Right click on the my computer icon on your desktop or your start menu (not a shortcut though...) Select properties (you can also do this by going to the control panel and selecting System settings or something similar) In here you want the rightmost bottom (at top) tab that is *I believe* performance settings. Click first of the three buttons for virtual memory. In here should be a list of visual services. You want icon drop shadows which is found somewhere near the bottom of the list.

If for some reason you believe the above to be wrong or just are having a hard time finding i might be tempted to actually check my windows machine and host some screenshots to assist more.

At work I run some version of Windows XP Pro with the desktop pic below.

At home I run Windows XP Home SP2 and a laptop with FreeBSD 5.3 Release running KDE... very sweet. I did the Mac thing back in college and have kinda grown outta them.

Backgrounds aren't that done up for me, but if I weren't married they would most likely be all kinds of hot-ass naked women. I use to have this really cool one of two chicks making out with stereo headphones on... it was black and white... very nice. Guess thats what happens when you marry a Catholic-Conservative and you are a red-blooded horny as hell male.

1024 x 768 Thats the highest resolution I have on my Thinkpad T43 unless anyone here knows how to boost it more than that. Also, how do I change my "start" menu and bar to black like golde30 and rwdrift? I have Windows XP

Rachel Ray, the food network chick.

I'd rail it raw.

OMG Ive always wanted to waffleswaffleswaffleswaffles her hard. I thought I was the only one though. All the girls that I tell that I want to ravage her look at me like Im out of my tree.

^^^Nope, you're right on the money - Rachel Ray would be one of the best gigs you could get. Even when the sex got predictable, she'd still be able to make you a killer samich afterwards.

I'd be all over it too.

Looks like the next best thing to boning her would be that picture and a warm apple pie!! Rachel Ray would be hot to rock all night but there is this other cooking chic as well..... Giada De Laurentiis

She does not look like she would be a loud type. Handful, maybe. More like that senseless porn actress that does her part.

raspy voiced chicks sound like dikes! bitches that drink and smoke their asses off and talk/yell to much while out. I cannot stand those bitches. Lohan might as well be from Rohan with her raspy dikey, alcoholic, drug abusing ass voice is one of them.

So let's hear who you would pick - seems all you do is talk crap, never toss out your own idea. Safe to play that way, but never gets your viewpoint out there.

OK, I'm not E30Matt, but I run Ubuntu 7.10 at work. I love it, and it's a huge improvement over 7.04. It's honestly one of the nicest Linux-based OS's I've dealt with. If you have some computer knowledge and some patience, you can really get Ubuntu setup so well, you'll never look back to Windoze. I still have Vista Business running on my work laptop and I'm just about ready to wipe it and go to Ubuntu as well.

Here's the only real advice I give.... If you have an ATI video card, ditch it and get an NVidia. It's so much easier. You *can* get the ATI to work, but it's just a real PIA.

I'm still new to Linux, only been using it inside of a month on the laptop. It's really starting to grow on me though, it's WAY more stable and infinitely more customizable than XP, plus my 1.5 Celeron laptop feels like a waffleswaffleswaffleswafflesing supercomputer running it.

Thumbs up, I think I'll keep it on there for a while, at least until I pick up a Macbook Pro and chuck that thing in the garbage.

Have you played with Compiz yet? People at work see my desktop and all the effects and they want it turned on. I tell 'em too bad, gotta get Linux. LOL

I switched since a patch from Microsoft broke the validation service in Vista 64-bit... It died 30 days later. F-ing POS Microsoft.
