Re: Windows 7 Fact Thread

My download speed has steadied out around 750KB/s, and I got 28 minutes...

Well crap. As soon as I said that, it went down to 400, then up to 1.2MB/s again. Lmao. Either way, within a half hour I'll have it.

EDIT: Saxon, I work for AT&T Wireless, not the hard line division. Besides, the only real high speed available in town is Comcast and Verizon DSL. No AT&T. I was praying for FiOS, but no such luck. They were supposed to be cracking on getting that coverage here, but no such luck.

Ladies and gents, I finally got the .iso fully downloaded and I installed it on my second partition with Daemon Tools. So far so good. Except it expires in 30 days. Now were do I get a legit key ???

Can't justify buying an decent AGP card for over 70 bucks when I'm just going to end up replacing my hardware later, and PCI-E cards 3 times better cost the same.

Mine keeps on dying between 350 and 420MB. Is anyone else having this problem?
