People, this arguement is from people that are at the same school. It's like this all the time. So far, this is the most civil we have been. Wonder why I don't like I.T.?
Guy, I don't want a router even if I had the money. I have a reason why I can't have a job right now (medical). Be nice if your clique wasn't snobby over owning routers while the rest of us understand that computers are tools and not a lifestyle. The only one flaming here is you, Guy. doZZ as well. Not al of us illegally download software and need that much security.
- Who cares if you do or don't want a router? I was in Florida on vacation for the past week and don't know what's happening at school. So as far as people complaining about you not having a router, I could care less.
- Also, if by my "snobby clique" you mean, friends of mine that don't moan and wine or blame Microsoft for failing the cert exam, and actually having to study and listen in class, then yes... we are a "snobby clique".
- I am curious, who do you mean by "the rest of us"? Because most of the people that are on this forum use their computers in their jobs or everyday lifes, which make computers kind of a lifestyle, because we use computers to maintain our way of life and make a living.
- Flaming means to make a personal attack on another person. I have not done this to anyone. So I would like to know how I "flamed" anyone considering I was the one that said not to turn this into a flame-fest?
- Illegal downloading has nothing to do with a firewall or anything that is in this thread. In your last statement you said, "
Not al of us illegally download software and need that much security." That would imply that you only need a router for security reasons, which is not true. I use my router for sharing an internet connection with the other computers in my house. We call that a home-network, for those of you paying attention. Yes, my router does provide security to an extent, by if I was foolish enough to believe that ONLY a router was needed to provide good security, well, that would just be bad judgement on my part.
I am not flaming you, only responding. I will say once again, if this thread can not be kept civil, it will be closed.
