No, they are working on the tower and they are afraid that the sound may hurt the workers. Tullio |

When it's free, you accept it graciously or decline it even more graciously, but don't bitch about it. I could probably learn to use 10, but liking it would take a lot longer. When it first came out, they said it was designed to work the same way as the phone and tablet OSes, but I don't want my computer to work that way. I only tolerate it on my phone because I have to.

I'm sticking with 7 as long as I can. I suppose eventually I'll get a new computer and it will have 10 on it and I'll learn to live it, but I will never "upgrade" my 7s. Why? Do what a lot of us DIY crunchers do. Build your own as you want it done. So you can keep 7 as long as it's viable. ![]() ![]() |

Yawning before the outrage. When the outrage comes, I'll go check on the thread at Einstein. It will probably end this week. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |

Some times ... Got a call from Doc today, "So sorry to tell you but the date for your surgery will have to be changed. The outpatient surgery center had a water main burst and it flooded. I'll get back to you when we can reschedule." Thanks doc, Oh by the way, did you know just as I arrived for the first surgery last week, just as my driver took the parking ticket out of the machine, the building fire alarm went off? Do you think I should buy a lotto ticket? ![]() |

I'm sticking with 7 as long as I can. I suppose eventually I'll get a new computer and it will have 10 on it and I'll learn to live it, but I will never "upgrade" my 7s. Or, do what I did... Turn your PC into a MAC/Hackintosh. :-) MAC OS X, 10.11.4 running one year and five months now. System thinks it's a MAC Pro 3,1 - 2008 Series, has 16 GB DDR2 RAM, two EVGA GTX-750TI SC GPUs with 2 GB GDDR5 VRAM each, one 1TB Western Digital Black HD for Win 7 Pro x64, (Prometheus), and one 1TB Western Digital Black HD for MAC OS X. (Andromeda.) The Win side is 3.5 years old; BUT, has NOT been running since I got MAC OS to run. Everyone else in NC says to go Linux... I CAN'T understand the Command Line structure, and REFUSE to use it for that reason. If I CANNOT Double Click to Install a program then I WON'T be making use of that program. I say GO MAC!!!!! :-) TL TimeLord04 Have TARDIS, will travel... Come along K-9! Join Calm Chaos |

Do you think I should buy a lotto ticket? I keep forgetting to. Just as well I didn't last week. David Sitting on my butt while others boldly go, Waiting for a message from a small furry creature from Alpha Centauri. |
