I had to spend $13 on a floppy drive I've used once and will only ever use once and it was to install my sata driver so XP Setup would recognise them.
Once I installed Linux (Debian) on a 2nd HDD I installed in my computer and Lilo would only boot Linux and my Windows CD wouldn't boot for some reason so I had to go to the shops and get 6 floppies so I could put the Windows recovery thing on them.
How to help you, put in your Windows CD, goto Recovery Console, type fixmbr, woot.
I solved my heat problem by re-applying the thermal compound between the cpu heatsink and the cpu. Now my Precott runs around 40 degrees under load. Woot

Probably, but today we did like 20 repetitive exercises on Goal Seek.
Does anyone by any chance have an LGA775 Prescott processor and an Abit AS8 or any other Abit board with uGuru. Because my heatsink/cpu fan is installed properly, it's in a Thermaltake VA3000SWA with two 12cm fans and a 9cm fan but, it works fine but Abit EQ says it is running between 80,90 and even 100+ degrees celcius while idle. So I'm not turning it back on until I know it is an incorrect reading. Otherwise I might go make some 2minute noodles on it.

When someone says they'll leave, doesn't it usually mean they'll leave?

That's odd, it worked for me. You can boot into 16 colour mode if you edit something in boot.ini. Sorry I can't help.

Some of Borland's products are a bit pricy if you ask me. But if you ask an enterprise developer they'll probably disagree.
What's the most expensive piece of software you all have bought?

$700 is actually a fair price, if it is too expensive I suggest you purchase a dated version of Flash or as Jesus mentioned purchase it with your student discount. Anyway, real programming is better and (usually) cheaper than Flash.

Yes, now run along.

Months ago I would have argued that but I am noticing more and more CSS that doesn't work in IE.
Let's hope Leedar never sees this.
Btw, I have no problems with links in Firefox. You doing it like this?
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="whatever.css" />
Count me in on that list, I'll stay Level 9 forever as voting is just too far out of my daily routine.
This would be better, sorry.

There's an error on line 1450, what do we do?

Yeah, notepad owns. I use VS if I'm doing reasonably advanced ASP but otherwise I'll use notepad for all my html, css, xml, xsl, asp, etc. needs.

http://csszengarden.com is a nice XHTML Strict page that Leedar (I think) posted in a similiar argument. I always make sure my code is fully XHTML Strict Valid just for my own self satisfaction.
