IÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ve a quick techie type question: The last bunch of wuÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s downloaded yesterday have 24-28 hour completion times, yet my tired old Ã¢â‚¬Ëœputer crunched through the first in less than 14 hrs, and, at presentt rate, will polish off the second in less than 12. Should I be happy, or concerned? And yes, I know, I should direct these questions into the Ã¢â‚¬ËœHelpÃ¢â‚¬â„¢ threads elsewhere, but you guys answer way quicker! btw: still winning! btw2: The borg neverwins!!!:-)) As long as you aren't getting compute errors, be happy. It's nothing to worry about. Thanks Labbie. Like I said, you guys are waaaay faster than the help threads! In the help threads there are some that would give you a long detailed explanation of how it works and why your machine is doing this. And maybe never actually get around to answering your fairly simple question which was: Do I need to worry? They're like lawyers that way. And we know what Shakespear said about them!

No more tests on animals! Take Lawyers instead! "First, let us kill all the lawyers..." To he honest, I'm not even sure that it's from one of Will's plays (high-school was many years ago), but it is still apt. And unless my clock is totally lost it, it's either very early, or very, very late in Germany. Why are you still up when a nice Canadian girl should be winning?

Ohh, Dog, it's taken me three years to figure out the basics of MS. Firefox is a part of my Desktop, but I'm kind of scared to click it. I'm a point and click, drag and drop person.
