    setting up a new machine? It takes me days, weeks, years! to get all the software installed and properly configured. A lot of that is due to the fact that the defaults just don't pass muster. I guess if I conformed to the defaults then life would much more simple.

    I've done it so often that it's become second nature. I'm usually up and running fine within a couple of hours, fully configured by the weekend.

      Yeah but there are so many things you forget you tweaked over the years. If only there was a way to export ALL user prefs for all apps and restore them again :sigh:

        So it sounds like it takes you a full week to setup a box :D

          I'm up in a few hours. The other time is spent deciding what games to put on. :cool: By Friday, they're installed, ready for the weekend.
