Hey, I used it. That was ... five year ago. Before I had got speedy cable connection. :D

*However the problem is a little different, more going in the way that the caching system of the phpbb2 is not ideal and not effective in nowadays standards of caching images. And it's also does save bandwidth. It's negligible performance compromise but it does help, so hey.. :devious:

And yes, they still exist!

So, any chance you could give me the addresses for those 5 people who still have it?! Just so they can stop existing...

Behold, it is Me! I just wanted to says, that I no longer require virgins. Their lack of experience and skill often infuriates me. I don't particularly like teaching them stuff. In the future bring me women, who are already known to men! Well, I need no whores either. I'm interested in the type who knows what's what, but not all used-up by an entire village or town. The fruits are okay, but I would prefer more variety. The same goes for the girls too!

I did not write the Guide, for I'm the Lazy One, who no longer does things. Also, I'm retired until a decent game is released.

Sure. ;) Congratulations!

It almost looks like an old Mac :P

PS Oh, and you probably should upgrade to SP3. Or maybe not, if you cannot backup current state. That is, that after every service pack the system is, ...different.

Trust me, you're better off getting a new one. I don't prefer 2nd hand computers because :
#1: It's like using 2nd hand condoms. You're just better off buying newer. faster and more powerful desktops at reasonable prices.
#2: It's not safe in terms of security unless you took out the HDD. Last thing you need is your private sex tape stored in your HDD and forgot to delete them.

That someone is usually people who don't know much about computers but brags like a genius. BTW going through the hassle of reformatting and giving it to someone else is....retarded. :)

Thanks Pol for reminding me about Service Pack 3. I got this computer up to date now. RUns like the last one I had only faster.

To Tshiro or whatever.....I got the computer from my dad for doing some tree work for him. He formatted it like it came out of the box. He only put 25 hours on this computer. He's not big into porn, and neither am I. I get enough of the real thing than to wish for it. But that aside. He's more worried about losing his pages for the book he's writing. But he got those on his other computer.
I basically got this machine for free and any computer for free is a good deal. It's a big upgrade for me! And I like it.

Sure, if you're a sucker and also reinstall windows on it instead of letting the person you gave it to do that...

Liar, liar, pants on fire....

Yes, I'm the sucker. :) Sorry I'm just not the retard to go through the hassle of formatting to whole HDD, reinstalling Windows, searching for the the drivers for someone else and free of charge. It screams why the hell do I have go through this time consuming process for someone else when he can do it himself... oh wait, he can't because I have to do it because I can't trust him.

To BetBandit or whatever... I congratulate that you're not into porn, but I would like to stress my statement clearly again. Sex tape and porn are two different things. Anyhow that is not the only thing that people should be concern with. What about your credit card number and Internet banking accounts. I'm not addressing to you, but to every person using a computer. Selling a used computer is almost akin to letting yourself being robbed, with all the convenient paypal, online banking.

But of course, it's a hand down from your father, so there's nothing for you to be concern about. What I thought was you're buying a computer from someone else, and I'm just the sucker who tries to warn about the real dangers of handing your computer to a stranger.


EDIT: oh yea... btw, [T]osHiro "died" long time ago.

Dude, you can just format the HDD and leave it at that... he's not buying the damn OS from you, is he?!

Last Pc i bought, brand new from the store, i told then specifically that i don't want anything on it... (of course the PC had other problems, like a crappy motherboard because he didn't have the one i wanted so he recommended another which was cheap and crappy, you'd think he'd want to make more money not less, and the 650 PSU wasn't enough anyway if i used the videocard at max).
