"Bug Off????" I'm crushed. :-(
Beautiful poem.
Well, it was kind of a spur of the moment purchase, though I've been *thinking* about it for a long time and have been saving and reading about different features from all the extra flyers and ads stuffed in our Sunday paper from Best Buy and other electronic stores. Knew when I was ready, I'd just go buy it and not wait to order a Dell. I was pretty sure I wanted a Gateway of some kind.
Okay, I went to Best Buy and picked a Gateway that they had been promoting. It's a Gateway: WindowsXP Media Center Edition 2005, Pentium D Processor (which is newer than a Pentium 4), 250 GB harddrive, 1 GB DDR RAM memory, CD/DVD burner, 17" LCD Flat-Panel Monitor, and color printer. (I didn't need the printer, but it came with the package - I already have a laser printer and a much better color printer). And one of the really neat things about it is that it has a memory card reader for my digital camera on the front. (I had to 'connect' my camera itself to upload pics to the old pc, and it was slower than Christmas transferring them!) This is instant pictures. :)
Aqua and dutchess, I DID get my Adobe PhotoDeluxe (that is NOT compatible with XP!) installed and it is working fine! That, as you know, was one of the main things that kept me tied to Windows 98SE.
I also had to use the Compatibality Wizard that is located in Programs/Accessories to install Gif Construction Set, because it wasn't compatible with XP without it either.
I'm likin' it, sistahs. I don't have to wait forever for pictures to open! :)
great job.. always like when I find "your stuff" on FR..
I'll be back to say somethin either way. lol
The opener was very pretty btw...sets a nice tone for the season ahead.
Billie yours is VERY similar(close to identical) to mine but I have the HP rather than Gateway (also Best buy).. good rebate deal on it. working on my support group 'stuff'... whose going to be part of the corrrespondsnce group? will post more on it (maybe cutsie table?) tomorrow.. hugs all
Oh, man....now you've done it. That last thing I wanted was for him to know that he is a "computer guru", and, worse yet the 'TRUE' guru. I'll never hear the end of it! LOL
Thanks, Dolly and Mrs. Nooseman.
I have sugar maple in the corner of my front yard. The leaves are a goregeous dark flame red. Plan on photographing it an a wide lily pond nearby this weekend.
Jack.
You are welcome.
I hope you plan on posting your pictures here.
I would love to see them.
There now, I fixed your spelling error. We are even. :-)
LOL Thank you.

Awwww.....I didn't mean it. : (
Have we made up? : )

Truth is truth! : )
Well, I'm not quite sure. Maybe you better do that one more time. LOL!!! ;-)
SMOOOOOOOOOCH!
Now, I need to answer a couple more pings and leave for a bit. TTYL, charmin' wolfie.
Getting a new computer is so much fun! I am excited for you, and Dolly especially, since I know what fits her old computer was giving her. *sigh*, I never get an entirely new computer. My system gets upgraded bits and pieces at a time when I get the "hand-me-down" parts from JK's computer. I'm not complaining though. His computer has to be cutting edge and is constantly being upgraded, so I am right behind him.
I need to leave for a bit. Hope to get back here shortly so I don't get too far behind with my pings.
Sistah hugs!
Love your poem. We don't rake our leaves. It makes a perfect "blanket" for our St. Augustine grass over the winter months. Then, voila! They are gone by spring!
