Well, just for comparison. I loaded a clean ISO of LinuxMint 17.3 KDE
64bit edition with the codecs. After the initial install, it was 144
updates behind; totaling (are you ready?) 246megs. :)

That laptop is working quite nicely now and is ready to be delivered
back to it's home. BFG It shipped with vista,32bit. Although the
machine has a 64bit processor. HP ****s em again. ROFL!

Alas, if it wasn't for big name companies, I wouldn't make nearly the
monies. Praise be to big name companies and stupid consumers. Please,
don't ever change.

No. I suppose I should be crediting the author(s), if it was possible.

I 'stole' it from an aluminum sign for sale at walmart. My sense of
humour is a very dry one, so I'm told, and, I found it funny as all
hell.

I recently purchased one of the humour tshirts infact. "Despite the
look on my face, you're still talking..." [g]

Wowbagger is a character in one of Douglas Adams' series - I forget
whether it was The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, or the Dirk Gently
series - who is condemned to travel the universe (including temporally),
insulting every being who has ever lived, in alphabetical order. (Ah, it
was THHGTTG, because I remember him insulting Arthur Dent.) The above
quote sounded very like him - might even be.

I recently purchased one of the humour tshirts infact. "Despite the
look on my face, you're still talking..." [g]

G indeed! I just wish more T-shirts had chest pockets (without which I
am lost), since so many of them do appeal to my sense of humour, but so
few have such a pocket. (An exception being part of a pajama/mightwear
set sold by one of our budget stores recently - which is the one case
where I _don't_ need the pocket!)

Wow! You're right, absolutely ****ing right. It's been so damn long
since I played that video game. [g] The movie didn't do it justice.

I picked up a cheap pack of hanes 'work' ts, they have the pocket.
[g] I like a pocket too. Handy!

ROFL. No...

I didn't ask to be made: no one consulted me or considered my feelings
in the matter. I don't think it even occurred to them that I might have
feelings. After I was made, I was left in a dark room for six months...
and me with this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left side. I
called for succour in my loneliness, but did anyone come? Did they
hell. My first and only true friend was a small rat. One day it crawled
into a cavity in my right ankle and died. I have a horrible feeling
it's still there...

Ah, another fan! I fear we're a declining number now, since the original
series came out before many current adults were even _born_ ...
