Thanks, I did It mostly for Ravok though. He's abit confused when It comes to Technical terms for PC's.

<snicker> the sad thing is, I bet he'll be asking his daughters what half of those are, and why It's funny.  ;)

That's a JOKE POST?   Why didn't you tell me before I memorized them?  Crap.  Now I know why Willweasel is gasping on the ground for air after I displayed my newfound techical expertise.

No No Angel, It's all 100% right on the mark. Just shake your Computer screen again, and It will make sense.   ;) ;D ;) ;)

   Okay, Stephen, I shook my monitor.  Now it is shaking on the screen and smoking from the side.  Is that supposed to be the way it happens, or do I need to use more duct tape on it?
