DB your computer skills are just boundless and legendary lol. Just one technical question, your preference for the rubber mallet instead of a metal one. Is this just giving the computer hope that it may survive the onslaught. Hannibal Lecktronic lol

It just happened to be the first hammer at hand..

[kimball492]

Ok got it DB speed is of the essence lol

[wokkaboy]

hey KB, the only time DB rushes a job is:
1) knock off and crack a beer
2) smash a PC with a hammer !
3) all of the above hahha

EDIT
4) turn off the TV when the Pies are getting flogged LOL

I have this portable time-telling device/camera. I understand it can also be used for making phone calls and "text" messages. Mine is definitely not in that pristine condition though.

That one looks very similar to my mobile phone, except mine's black in colour, it's a very old school Nokia, I do also have a Samsung Galaxy Y mobile phone too.

I run Win10 on a separate partition for my kids (and my) games that aren't release on Linux. It has 16Gb RAM and an i5 processor. It currently runs Linux Mint 17.2 on the other partition. FYI, I've been running Linux since 2005 (Fedora Core 3, switched to Ubuntu Hardy Heron, 2008, switched to Mint in 2015). Here are some interesting stats for you:

TOTAL COST (2005-15) $0 - Linux is free and open source
TOTAL VIRUSES/MALWARE* - 0
TOTAL CUSTOMISATION - 100%

*There have been viruses etc. for Linux (however, not like those found on Windows or Apple), but I've never used antiviruses etc and I've never had any problems. I just use good, safe computer/internet practices ie: only download from those whom you trust etc.

I think these are the reasons why the worlds best computers (think super-computers, military's, stock exchanges etc.) run Linux and not Windows or Apple. So there are other options out there that are high quality, if you continue to beat your head against a wall with the two major players.

the main problem with Linux is that none of the programs I use run on it

Have you tried WINE? Also, there are plenty of alternatives out there eg: Libre Office instead of MS Office, GIMP instead of Photoshop etc.

Gimp is pretty basic at best, there are no industry standard 3D programs that run on Linux, or none that I feel like paying out the price of a used car for anyway( I think Maya does a Linux version) . I don't use office type apps at all . I'm a graphics guy. My weapon of choice is Cinema 4D. Of course I can only do a fraction of what it's capable of ,I'm self taught :P
