Martha, I have to keep posting, i am trying to catch up with your post count. :lol:

As far as jury duty goes, I think I would rather drop a large, heavy object on my foot and have to wear a cast for several weeks. :thinking:

Wrong. The reports of its demise have been greatly exaggerated.

Long live the thread! Long live the thread! :bowdown:
Still graced with two eyes and ten fingers (due in no small part to luck!).

Just when you think a problem is solved, an uglier result replaces it.

A decade later, Windows 95 still won’t die.

Check out any of a number of Windows support forums, and it is readily apparent there are still lots of Windows 95 die-hards out there. While some are struggling to keep their aging systems ticking, others are content to keep patching and tweaking their decade-old Windows variant for the foreseeable future. And that perception is one of the biggest hurdles Microsoft will encounter as it launches Windows Vista—a Windows release that its executives have likened to Windows 95, in terms of significance to customers and importance to Microsoft's and its partners' futures.
On Aug. 24, 1995, Microsoft launched simultaneously Windows 95, Internet Explorer (IE) 1.0 and the first rev of the MSN.
Since that time, the company has released at least six new Windows client versions (and more, if you count interim updates, such as Windows 95 OSR2), including Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows 2000 desktop, Windows Millennium Edition (ME), Windows XP and Windows XP Service Pack 2. It has fielded myriad IE updates, some stand-alone and others bundled into the operating system. And it has morphed MSN from being primarily a dial-up Internet-access service to a full family of e-mail, instant-messaging, music, advertising, storage and search services.
Two months after the Windows 95 launch, more than one million copies of the product had been sold, according to Microsoft. While the company's marketing machine pulled out all the stops to convince people who had no idea what an operating system was that they needed to stand in line at midnight to buy one, the development side of the house was somewhat ambivalent about Windows 95, said Peter O'Kelly, a senior analyst with The Burton Group.
"Windows 9x wasn't supposed to happen—NT was supposed to be the mainstream consumer OS [operating system] long before Windows 2000," O'Kelly said.

Okay, another disaster adverted. I see my thread's still going strong :applause: I had an electrical gremlin that kept me busy all day and turned out to be my fault :cry: When I moved into this trailer 3 years ago, the clock on the gas stove buzzer wouldn't shut off, so I undid 1 wire from it. That dangling wire apparently decide to arc and spark late last night and blew the fuse. I went to HD and bought 2 new fuses. Thinking it was the fridge, I unplug it and wave and replaced the fuse, which promptly blew. (Is this sounding vaguely like an Ira story or is it me?) I unplugged toaster and dishwasher and replaced the fuse which promptly blew and welded istelf into fuse box. :thinking: (how about now) Went back to HD to get more fuses 4 this time. Remembered about clock and then roommate says "oh yeah, I heard something pop by the stove" :shock: So I take apart top of stove and theres that wire dangling, so I take other side off, tilt stove forward and sure enough theres a burn mark on the plug so I clean contacts. Then I apply gorilla fist (this comes from having more weight than a monkey fist) and removed welded fuse from box. Eureka :thumbsup: This always happens whenever I take a day off with no plans to do anything. Retirement really scares me! :lol:
I'm thinking this is the longest post so far on this thread :R :lol: nope just check after posting and Mike's looks longer 8) :lol: Mary K, I loved the cat but that last one hurts my eyes
