Out of the Blue

Users cling to old Microsoft operating systems (thanks Mike Martinez) is one of those weird coincidence articles, as it comes on the day I am finally going to bite the bullet and install WinXP on my gaming system, which has been steadfastly running Win98 since, well, 1998. I've always been happy with '98 as my gaming OS, and appreciate its lower overhead and continued ability to boot into DOS mode, but it's come to a point where that system needs an OS reinstall, and it just doesn't seem to make sense to do another '98 reinstall, especially with hardware and software support dwindling further every day.

1. Dantastic, I saw Jet on SNL tonight...not bad at all.

Has the first song they did been featured in a commercial? It sounds familiar.

2. Indiv, I believe it was you who I was talking with about a AGP card running in PCI mode? I finally looked last night and had the EXACT same issue as you did. Thanks for the tip!

3. Enahs, get to feeling better...
