Default I fixed my computer . . .

['Sorry, I don't know who did this - - 'just forwarded to me by one of my sisters-in-law.] Don

After going through a virus attack, losing a hard drive,fighting off hackers,upgrading all my software, installing fire-walls, being threatened with being cut-off by my email provider,and a host of other problems...I have fixed my computer... and NOW it works exactly the way I want it to!

Don,

We cannot see the photo that is in your Yahoo Mail without you giving us the login and password to your account. Instead, save the photo to your computer and either attach it to the post or upload to the Gallery and link it in the post.

I can see it, so you must have done something right. That's probably the best improvement one can make for their computer.

Problem, Don. Light beers are horrible warm, and computers run pretty warm. It should be serving Guinness.

Dave, I think he's got a modified liquid based cooling unit for the CPU, which is running ethanol cooled to -37.46 degrees F, which is perfect for just in time cooling of a lager as it's poured. Hence the good foam head.

Don tried to post a photo that was still in his Yahoo mailbox. I'm not buying your suggestion for a second.
