C++ may have a rough patch ahead, but C isn't going for a long time.
That doesn't help my situation, i'm not going down to C.
Why not? Other than the obvious reasons ;)
I use both C and C++ for different things.
The obvious reasons are important, at least for me.
Furry muff then :)
Furry muff? :) I don't get it
You don't get furry muff? No wonder you keep wondering what the meaning of life is...
It's rhyming slang: Furry muff == Fair enough :)
Ah, so that's what the meaning of life is - Furry muff :)
I've just got Win 2000 and I love it...hasn't crashed yet, all hardware got installed correctly, no driver problems at all. I didn't need any driver disks!
If you don't have it, buy it now!! I take back everything bitching I ever said about MS...
I couldn't use my printer or my scanner with it.....
I love Win2k otherwise, so I guess I'm going to have to get a new printer and scanner :(
Not that many people in Chit Chat today.
tis saturday, not many people on the boards
Damn, that's not good. But scanners are dirt cheap these days which is good.Quote:

Not filb, but then it is saturday.
I'm still bitching about Win2K :mad:
why? it rulez!
Well the fact that it won't even install on my computer doesn't help...
Although when you've got compatible hardware, yeah, it rocks :) (I use it across the room but that's a bit pointless considering the computer with the hi-fi and the modem and the fast processor is over here)
It has to be said I had a bit of a bad time just getting it to install. The Win9x setups work in "DOS" mode, from a bootable disk. But the win2k setup doesn't. I eventually tried makeboot.exe which made 4 special bootdisks, but there is absolutely no mention of it in the installation book...it just says "Insert CD and Windows 2000 Setup should run". I was like..."err, how does it do that with a blank HDD?!"
It's a bootable CD - you need to set your BIOS to boot from it though. Mine also came with a set of boot floppies in case the BIOS didn't support booting from CD.
I have yet to see a legitimate Windows 2000 CD. And yes, I am running Windows 2000. ;)
They're very pretty - they have a nice hologram on them :)
It's actually full-colour in the right light, which is a way cool effect :D
Yeah, I've seen the Office 2000 one, and it is freaky-looking. :eek:
Well, I suppose it *is* slightly reflective...
unfortunately, the cd drive is a bootable device. I had to make the floppies myself!Quote:

If it's a bootable device then why was there a problem? :confused:
Or was it a typo?
it was a typo, i forgot the "n't" n isn't...:D
Okay ;)
another rare hey from me :)
Hiya Simon. As I type this, my computer is furiously cropping and compressing an MPEG to AVI. Burn baby burn!

Hi Chris
Hello Ked how are you?
As you can see I'm bored, plus I recently failed to start a good conversation with Nicola. How about you?
Well I am bored also... I am trying to find a new job still.
