oh jeez, i hope you feel ok. Let me tell you this...cramming is not the way to do things. you should have been paying closer attention during class.

I did a clean install and then some. As I was going through it and naming stuff, I whiffed when it came time to pop his name in there, reflexed and put my usual name and password. Didn't realize my error until two days later, didnt feel like doing it again. Change Short Name is a snap, takes about 15 seconds once you enter the names you wish to have, no biggy at all. Thanks all

HI,
I changed the admin account long and short name using the Utility "Change Short Name"..worked great.
Now, when I start up the comp, it still has my name above the window that say's "so and so's computer. Is there any way to change this without re-loading the OS?
Im selling my comp to a friend and want it to read "his computer".
thanks

I say, up where the grass is growing?...a little shrubbery, a fountain...invite the birds in to tweet, some nice macrame pot holders hunged from the roof joists....
Have the prospects back for a second look at the attic, offer them a glass of freshly squozed lemonade... just might work. You've got to make lemonade when you're given moth chawned undies.

Are you using Costco's DryCreekPhoto profiles? What state are you in Webster?
Go to the following link and where you see the list of States..click on your state. Then, track down the Costco that you shop at.
Usually they have a "DryCreek" profile which you can download. Then read the instructions to the various phases of color management on the same page that the link takes you

Well, they found huge chunks of cooled moltenized steel balled up with lots of other crap, documented in photographs and by eyewitnesses, the workers at the clean up. Of course the steel would have cooled enough to re-solidify fairly quickly, nevertheless, it was present.
The steel in question was at the bottom of the pit and was not anywhere near the fires caused by the planes

I would pretty much do what do what Elmo3 suggested...Let the insurance company deal with it. If you have a good record with your Ins. company and have been with them a while, your rates shouldn't be affected. I've had several ding a lings smack my vehicle outside of my building and insurance always covered it and my rates have been very stable over the years.

Yeah, the jet fuel explosion wasn't even a comepletely contained event. Most of it blew out into the air and burned off very quickly, the "experts" all agree on this point.

Yep, Joe I did accuse you of that and it was an error. I lost track very quickly of who was who scrolling around the page. All you had to do was voice it and I would have understood and aplogized.

Relating to a previous thread a few spaces down on the list:
You guys here who deny that there is anything suspicious and/or compelling about the "other" ideas about what could have happened that need to understand that there could be an actual, decent discussion about this.

MacMagus, that is @#$%&, the earth was thought of as flat, like your white, scottish ass....you, however, are a myth while seated in your desk chair.
Naw, MacMagus, I've climbed all the hills that the smarties have, but I still see myself as being fairly stupid when it comes to the status quo of the "smart and educated". a meaningless benchmark from my point of view.

Robert,
I don't see anything in there that suggests anything other than the fact that Im a person who takes much of what our government says with a grain of salt.
Politics relies on a patronage system where the qualified are, many times, overlooked in favor of the connected...hired by people bound in certain political favors. It is an age old tradition that fuels our political process fro
