Default Hard Drive Question

I wouldn't expect it to microwave anything. But I would expect the disk
management program that comes with it to actually work. I don't think that
is too much to ask for, smart ass!

Total crap. I had not trouble, infact it took less than 2 minutes to
repartition and format three drives, two 1TB and one 500GB one using
Acronis's drive managment product. Once again, Microsoft crap can't do the
job.


In case you haven't tried yet, Vista won't microwave your dinner
either.

Default Hard Drive Question

That's why Wireless N was developed. But you probably already Knew that.

No, but the other way around is true.

My wife uses her Vista laptop in a location that happens to be a few feet
beyond the microwave in line with our wireless router on the other side
some 25 feet away. In other words, the mw oven is between the two. When
she microwaves she loses connectivity with the router. So what does she
always try to do while she's waiting for the mw to finish? Check her
email, of course. It never fails and she always slaps her forhead. It is
a source of humor in our house.

Yeah. The laptop has n but the router is older and doesn't. When doscis 3
becomes available here I plan on upgrading both router and cable modem.
