[THIS IS A GOOD OLE' FASHIONED VANITY]
OK, so my son calls me from Auburn ...
Right after downloading and installing the latest updates from our friends in Redmond, the OS crashes into a memory dump/ BSOD.
Vista Home Premium 64 bit on an HP notebook duo core 2 quad etc etc.
It'll boot and run in safe mode, but something Microsoft sent out conflicts BIG time.
I called Geek Squad to set up an appt for him, and the gentleman at Geek Squad said they had been getting a LOT of calls about laptops crashing after a Windows update.
Shoulda bought him that Macbook ;-)
>>>Shoulda bought him that Macbook ;-)
Yes, you should have.
Apple’s Snow Leopard OS came out yesterday - FedEx brought mine - it installed without a hitch. :)
Except for the missing drivers for certain high-end Sony digital video cameras we use, yeah, it was perfectly ready for release. So my business partner has to wait just a bit to enjoy Snow Leopard.
But in fairness to Apple, at least the gaps were published and a schedule released for updates.
I"m always looking for incredible deals....
