I wish there was a patch for humain stupidity.

We are in 2011 for god sakes, if you cant install and uninstall software on your own computer, do basic ,monitor/mouse/keyboard cable checks, you shouldnt allowed to use one. its basic operation.


Jakes337: These day there is no difference between software, freeware and shareware. its all freeware!

You will never need to work in DOS...ever. Dos isn't supported anymore. DOS, essentially doesn't exist (except for hobbyists, and those that like playing DOS games, and even then, there's DOSBox). DOS hasn't been used by Windows since Windows 98 (might have been in ME...can't remember now) I believe. Installing Windows is a piece of cake. Put the disc in. Let it boot from disc. Follow instructions on the screen. That's it. My 2 year old could accidently install Windows correctly...

Basically, if you can do everything ghache has said, you shouldn't have much trouble building a computer and installing an OS. Again, you'll have to do some research, and prep work, but it can be done in an afternoon by just about anyone.

RIAA

Recording Industry AA

They do music, not movies and software. The RIAA has never knocked on anyone's door for illegally downloading software.

Wow I have been over estimating the difficulty of making computers. I always thought it was like starting from scratch. Like creating lines of code to get the hard drive programmed.

:er:

And this is why some people shouldn't be building their own computers.

SIIA, BSA? There's no one central agency IIRC.

I had a comment typed out, but instead, I'll let you think that Windows 7 costs more than a laptop with Windows 7 installed. I'm sure you can do the research needed to find out.

Dear Mr. Gaerek,
Can you please tell me more about this "research" that you speak of? Is it free? Can I have other people do it for me and then transfer it to me and my ownership? How does one go about doing this so-called research? Can you please provide me a series of links to this "research" you mentioned? How long must I wait to utilize whatever is learned from having somebody do the research for me? Please forgive my poor English skills. My native landgwidge is French,and I am what you Americains call a French-Canadian Canuck,etcetera,etcetera. (Damn I wish there was a way to shorten etcetera!) Thank you again Monsieur Gaerek,for your helps with le research!
Adoringly,
Willie

Oh wow three separate agencies. Here in canada its the rcmp and they would rather do real policing than trying to catch some 12 year old downloading software.
