Saturday, February 6. 2010Sprint Switching to GSM?
I just got this in the mail:
![]() Apparently due to Verizon opening their network to all devices regardless of branding alot of people are leaving Sprint and taking their business (and handsets) to Verizon. In order to combat this Spritn is switching to a GSM network so they can lock devices like AT&T or T-Mobile. I'm told I'll be eligible for an early upgrade to get a GSM phone.

was wondering if anyone has a problem with firefox closing on random pages, and saying, sorry, oops,or this is embarrassing. then it ask if i want to send a crash report. then it ask if i want to quit or restore. it restores just fine. but it is getting quite annoying. Ive searched around for a fix, and found that there are many people w/ the same problem. I never did find a fix. FF support is minimum to none so no help there. so if any1 has had this problem and knows how to fix, or can help at all please comment.

Final UPDATE: It passed! You can tint your windows now!
August 25th 2009 is shaping up to be a good day for Illinois drivers... UPDATE: Ok, so here's the secret, Aug 25th was the deadline for Governor Quinn to respond to HB3325, a bill that would allow Illinois drivers to apply window tint to the front side windows of their cars. Quinn sent the bill back with an amendatory veto, correcting a small flaw in the draft, however he has stated his support for the bill's objective. Currently the bill is scheduled to be read in the House and the Senate on Oct 14th, and will almost certainly pass again, so come next summer you can tint all the windows on your car. The allowed tint under the current draft would be 50% in the front with 30% in the back, 35% all around, or the currently legal tints of nothing in the front and as dark as you want in the back. UPDATE #2: The House has overridden the governor's veto, in theory the bill will be read and voted on in the Senate the 28th, 29th or 30th, although it hasn't been placed on the calender yet. UPDATE #3: It has been placed on the Senate calender to be voted on the 28th. Status of HB3325 Thursday, October 29. 2009Cliff Burton would be proud

Windows 7 system requirements
If you want to run Windows 7 on your PC, here's what it takes: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor 1 gigabyte (GB) RAM (32-bit) or 2 GB RAM (64-bit) 16 GB available hard disk space (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit) DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver Additional requirements to use certain features: Internet access (fees may apply) Depending on resolution, video playback may require additional memory and advanced graphics hardware For some Windows Media Center functionality a TV tuner and additional hardware may be required Windows Touch and Tablet PCs require specific hardware HomeGroup requires a network and PCs running Windows 7 DVD/CD authoring requires a compatible optical drive BitLocker requires Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 1.2 BitLocker To Go requires a USB flash drive Windows XP Mode requires an additional 1 GB of RAM, an additional 15 GB of available hard disk space, and a processor capable of hardware virtualization with Intel VT or AMD-V turned on Music and sound require audio output Product functionality and graphics may vary based on your system configuration. Some features may require advanced or additional hardware. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Windows 95 Hardware Reqirements -Hardware Requirements For Installing And Successfully Running Windows 95 -Before even considering an upgrade of your current operating system to Windows 95, you should closely examine your current hardware configuration to determine if you meet the absolute minimum requirements that Windows 95 needs to run. Make sure and use the preferred requirements if at all possible. Windows can run in the minimum hardware configuration but performance will be awful. -Here's the list of minimum, recommended, and preferred requirements for a Windows 95 installation: PROCESSOR Minimum: 386/DX Recommended: 486/DX Preferred: Pentium 75Mhz or higher MEMORY Minimum: 4MB Recommended: 8MB Preferred: 16MB or higher VIDEO ADAPTER: Minimum: VGA Recommended: SVGA Preferred: SVGA with 2MB Video RAM DISKETTE OR CD-ROM DRIVE Minimum: 3.5 High Density Floppy Drive Recommended: CD-ROM 2X Speed Preferred: CD-ROM 4X Speed or higher HARD DRIVE SPACE Minimum Install: 24 MB free space Recommended: 70 MB free space Preferred: 90-120 MB free space I just wanted to show this b4 i say that i think windows can but will not make a OS (operating system) that uses minimum resources. Then still provide a high quality media. I mean what do you really expect out of your PC? I myself expect to see and hear it. If there is something that im missing out of my PC ,please let me know. As far as spending $1500 on a prefab so you can play games with a constant 250fps(frames per second) and the most life-like sound that is out at the time, is a joke.I am not sure but i think i herd at some time, was that, your eye can not render over 60fps. they keep improving hardware ,or at least the numbers keep getting higher. Who needs it. I do under stand there r people out there that do use six or nine monitors, but they are making $200,000 a year using them. It would not surprise me at all that in 20 years we will be paying as much for a car as a PC, and the keyboard and mouse they wont even sell them anymore. we will just talk to "it" and it will listen.Just a prediction. This is a rant by PARROT status windows vista=HATE IT windows xp pro=use it windows 95=never had a problem with it
