Well.. the fact that they stressed it was not ready meant.. that it was not ready.. unfortunate! 
I wonder how well and good it will be in a few month though.. Be sure to let us know!

I have seen everything from Mickeysoft as a preview ever since they announced Win8. They have not earned a cent from me since then.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Did you just call me a hypocrite? Where is the soapbox when I need it for once?
Like it or not, but I have my plan. I always do and this time there is no room for Mickeysoft in it. And I'm also old enough to know that the first victim at enemy contact is the plan. Younger me would first have burned all bridges and then wasted a thought about the consequences.

Then you know how great it feels, as foolish as it may be.

Hi All,
My Mum got a phone call yesterday regarding her eBay account. She was a little dubious and told them zip (I am told). Last night/this morning around 03:00 am I tried to log in to my account according to email this am. I am now informed I should change my password. So I try to and it wont accept my password so I can't change my password. This leads me to conclude a) I am a dozy git, who can't remember his password (likely) or b) someone is trying to make off with my eBay account. Is there a human I can talk to...

If you can automatically log in to FleaBay, then disconnect your PayPal account from it - this will be the bit they are after, not the "what I have bought" list. Or you can contact Paypal and they will lock the account for you until you are sure it's secure.
If you use Chrome to remember your passwords, you can access them if you go to "Settings", "Autofill", and enter your Google password.

Was just reading an article on from the Daily News on The Internet Relies on People Working for Free, and talks about cURL. Was curious what that was so googled it.
I was reading c U R L.
So did not click straight away this was curl, which i read a one word.
Don't know if this more related with dyslexia differences, or how I use the shape of words for remembering, which gets me confused when I spell a word correctly, know it is spelt correctly, but because it is either all lower case or has a first letter capital I just stare in confusion why the word looks wrong.

Well,
The link is to Matt Davis who attacks the idea and demonstrates that it's possible to construct sentences that can can have dual meanings using the first/last letter rule. But there is certainly some truth to the idea.

No, I was commenting on Griff's "Most the of time" and "the the" that he slipped into his reply...

Griff,
I must know... was this in reference to the previous latin motto in my signature?
Thanks,
