Ok party true.I mean I still sue IE because it's habit adn FireFOX seems to loads page about 2-3 slower for me, but I am aware it an option. I try putting FireFox on for friends and family and they say stuff like "what's that for". I have friends that had an old HP( 533 MHz ) and 128 MB ram and he got broadband from his cable company and of course when he started up his computer it took forever. Mainly because he had 100 things running in his start-up tray and he asked me "I thought this internet was supposed to be faster" I told him he wasn't even on the internet yet.

I swear people buy computers and don't know shit and don't bother to learn. and then wonder why they have spyware and viruses. They go and buy these $500 computers from Wal-mart with 256K of RAM and wonder why it runs slow. Hell when I got a computer in 2000 I hadn't used one since I used a friends Comadore 64 in 1991. Well you know what, I fucking taught myself how the damed thing worked. What I couldn't figure out I went to wal-mart and saw a book called "The complete idiot's guide to Windows 98" and said "yep that's me" and bought it.
