Universal Serial Bummed

Chris, did you say you were installing Lindows ME?

What??? That little laptop doesn't have a firewire port? What a piece of crap!!! Seriously, do what I “hear” some people do… they go down to their local BestBuy (I see they have one near your studio) or Fry's, “test-drive” a USB CD-RW for a few days and returned it. Yes, it's something many people won't do, but hey, I don't really see a problem with that. :)

Dude trust me I know it kinda look's like a bad Idea to buy one of these little suckers but after a while you'll star liking it, it's already groing on me and I'm seriously thing of buying one myself!

lol @ James, I agree with you, everybody buys and returns products the next day, especially Frys. That's what their known most for doing because my brother works there and there's nothing but lines out the door on the return lines.

Maybe Lindows ain't all it's cracked up to be.

Lou lactually lanted lo linstall lindows? Lunny! ;)

Wow, that's not cool. So it's the USB CD drive and not the Image, is it? Yes, that must suck greatly. Welcome to the fun I had a little over a year ago when MY CD drive decided to die on me right before I attempted to install an image of WindowsXP.

I know that they'll give it to you Chris.How can anyone resist that face ! ;)

Heeeey chris. Um if you have a free moment…will you vote for me in this contest? I really really really want to win and I'm losing right now. :( I've never won anything before and it would mean so much if I won. Think I could have your vote?

I would do it for you! ;)

Chris,
What is Lindows? Don't mean to be Linux-illerate, but I haven't heard of that before. I know Redhat, Mandrake and Suse Linux. But as for Lindows, I don't have a clue.

If I remember correctly, there aren't any 16 bit USB drivers. So no, it wouldn't work at boot.
