I meant in relation to the other figures she has! Ok, maybe he was the best droid.

In the same way that "Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Film" was the best knight in Monty Python's Holy Grail.
Hint: "3CPO" is not a droid in Star Wars. I think you meant "C3PO".

Ouch! Just seen that after staring at it for a while! Funny.

Why, just because I didn't hyphenate C-3PO[^]?

is awesome!
I have it set up to run on login, and have it configured as a Quake-style drop down console.
I have TCC/LE, CMD, PowerShell, Git Bash, MSys2 Bash, and MinGW32/64 shells configured in it.
Anyone else like ConEmu?

I'm assuming the next part was a reference to a bird which is no good at fixing TV aerials.

Try Rod Hull[^]. The reference is probably limited to those over 30 in the UK.

I am not even from the UK. I guess the Road Runner[^] would be another possible meaning.

I love it. I have VS command prompt, CMD, and powershell setup in mine. Nice to have everything in one place.

Just backed everything up on my Windows 8 laptop and have my Windows 7 Pro DVD in the drive. Time to reboot. Bye bye Win8. I will run Win8 in a VM if I absolutely need it.

It feels good to upgrade, doesn't it?

I bought a new PC a couple months ago. The first thing I did was pop in the Win 7 DVD.
I refuse to use Win 8, with the exception of the tablet my client sent me to test my app on.

I had Windows 8 using "Classic Shell" so I never saw the Metro screen so was happy for a while since I had a regular desktop. Things that made me mad:
1.) Windows would tell me is was "GOING TO REBOOT" for an update and didn't give me choice to postpone reboot! I just hit cancel thinking it would keep asking... no it just rebooted while I was using it!
2.) When I tried to start VMWare Workstation a windows prompt came up telling me because of recent updates I need to reinstall VMWare Workstation. Why is the OS making me "reinstall" my apps that it should not touch?
I'm on Win7 now. Still got drivers to download. Going backward screws you as far as the OS detecting drivers. I had to go straight to RealTek site on my other computer to download driver so I could get a "wired network" connection. Then Win 7 Update found my wireless card. I'm going to go crazy today but it will be worth it. As soon as I have all drivers working I'm using Macrium Reflect Free to backup image of a clean install so if I have to reinstall again I don't go through this.

I had the same problem with drivers. I can't get any USB ports to work, other than mouse & keyboard. I'm using my new PC as a server, and II remote in anyway, so I can live with USB ports for now.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

I got almost all drivers working now. My USB 2.0 ports work fine, the two 3.0 ports aren't working yet. Getting closer

We hired this contract employee that refuses to do any work.
He says we've not given him the data he needs.
The really annoying thing is that he insists on charging us for 'waisted' time.
After the meeting I was going to confront him but he was out the door in a flash.
I tried to follow him but while I was crossing the street he ducked into an alley or a pub.
I think the fellow is an alcoholic trying to rip us off.
Any suggestions?
