And if it was say Sun.com or Apple.com doing the same thing, and showing that .net was being whipped, you'd be all foaming at the mouth calling for all sorts of investigations and such. But since you seem to spend about half your time at Microsoft getting all cozy with them, no surprise you'd come to their defense.

I personally have the DC3600 (which is exact same as my DC240 I used to have, just more pixels) and it does a great job. Under $400, uses compact flash - fits about 100 images on a 64meg card. You can get an add-on attachement to use screw-on lenses (if you do this, buy good lenses, not the cheap stuff which will ruin your shots). It's not an SLR, but it's decent. If you can get the DC3600 used for about 2/3rd of retail, jump on it.

Ask Microsoft for help - that's what you paid for. Unless you got the 75pence version from China.

.who .gives .a .rats .arse? and it's dot NOT, not dot NET. .NET/.Net/.net are top level domains.

Use PHP on Apache and learn to write better code.

Hopefully quite soon. Developers have gotten too big for their britches and need to be taken down a few pegs.

If you're going to troll, at least do so with proper English. And don't worry, your little mudhole is next.

Is there a point to your post, or was this just some sort of "wow, look at me!" self-pleasuring topic?

Sure, and it makes it easier for you to be tracked & hacked, too!

Well if you had a clue this was going to happen, why haven't you been sending out your resume all over the place (like everyone else has - I've been filling my compost pile with this stuff). You can always try kissing major a$$ with your boss, and offering favors like working for no pay on the weekends or waxing his car. Otherwise, join the unemployment line and bring a book (don't drink anything, there is no bathroom). The local supermarket might be looking for a bag boy, but probably everyone else you used to work with is already trying to get that job. PS: no I do not feel sorry for you.

Wise Install will do this for, if you can afford the thing
