After a techno week from hell TBF I could not even contemplate thinking about the possibility let alone add one.

Perhaps next week or month or year. I am so over the electronics world I am seriously considering become a Luddite.

Snail mail and reading the newspaper and fax machines look very attractive today.

I am updating nothing until 2014 at minimum if ever.

You could compromise and go back to Windows 98. Or Windows for Workgroups 3.11.

    agree od - humour and microsoft is an oxymoron

    after your experiences with apple and ipad you are running out of options

    hope the family on the improve

    After the initial first months problems with the iPad it is now running as sweet as I could imagine.

    Typing this on it now dc

    The laptop is a work computer so I have no choice but to put up with it.

    However when my own PC dies I think I will be visiting the Apple shop.

    I have a number of friends on Android who all report good results pity they don't make a pc operating system.

    The problem with Apple is their hardware is so expensive compared to PC.

    But I guess as my brother keeps reminding me " Price does not matter if it won't work"

    The windows 8 laptop has been retired to the floor under my desk till then so hopefully my humour will return over the next five days.

    It is just that I hate being beaten by Dell and Microsoft!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    oooh......now yore just sweet talking me baby !!

    I find it absolutely hilarious to note how wrong ol' HAL got so many things. Personal PC's ?? No way Jose !! lol epic fail

    A mate of the time actually worked for the company and showed me Warp. i was a bit of a newby to puters so didnt fully grasp its wonder til late having a career in them.

    Warp...kinda a PC'd morphing of a Unix style entity all being done by the most Ironic of companies. A brilliantly engineered OS...its what Windows should have been !! lol

    Please don't dc you are rubbing salt into the wounds today.

    After a week from hell this week I yearn for a simpler time.

    What with a sick family, bloody windows 8, and numerous other disasters I could go a Tex bar right now with a strong coffee.

    Sorry to hear it, OD. Hope the family are better soon.

    As for Windows, someone must make a Microsoft voodoo doll, or punching bag ... :-)

    Was told by a little Saint's birdie, that the Coach sacking has a lot to do with a huge prospective sponsor who wanted a new Coach.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
