    Not the biggest fan of the color contrast of the windows. I wish they were a little darker between the white and the post windows. Is that something I can change in the settings or is it permenantly super light blue?

    I seen several people complain about that. I don't know if you can change it. Haven't dug through everything yet myself on my Mac.

    I don't like how everything needs input. The multi quote for instance. Kinda annoying. Miss the straight up old user control panel too.

    Some other cool stuff though.

    Nice man! Official the girl friend eh? You're slipping into car land officially haha don't forget to drive in the dirt every now and then. :p

    Dad and I almost bought a Toyota crown something 2000. Straight six and 3 speed on the colum. Was unique and cool. But passed.

    Thanks too. I'm at a location gig with the same company today. Then playing trumpet for Dvojaks 9th symphony.
    Haha gage living the dream haha

    I am running inverted colors on this and it looks way better. It also keeps all images in normal color.

    Tires get excessive wear from sliding. From what I recall, it was very difficult to make your front end slide (push), the rear was a lot easier to break loose. Plus it is rear wheel drive. And I rode with you enough to know you try to break the rears loose...regularly!

    Not surprised the rears are showing more wear.

    1200 sq feet is small for a house. Be nice size though. The garage is the hard part.

    But that's a good goal. I'll be happy if I have a stable job at all a year after I graduate and can afford to eat and drive anything.

    This was my high speed internet last night plugged directly into the modem. That is 1% of the speeds my roommates and I are paying for.

    Its gotten unacceptable to me:annoyed:. Everyday at 5 pm the speed goes to that. I have called them right as it happens and all I get is the "restart your modem" and "its your router" speeches. On one occasion I called and tested the speed with the lady on the phone and it was super slow and then she said test again and magically my speeds were back to normal :rolleyes:

    I have to restart my modem a few times a day. The internet just crashes and I can't load a page until I unplug it for 10 seconds. I didn't have a problem until I was "upgraded" to a better modem. You live in apartments, yes? They probably linked everything together and that drags you down during busy times.

    Yeah I live up in the sun chase village so lots of people probably hop on about the same time. I had to do my homework last night over my phones cell data. Luckily we are moving places next year and hopefully we won't have this problem any more

    Its become damn near unusable for us. The university is sporting 90 Mb/s over wifi and I only get the .35 Mb/s wired!

    And when called charter does nothing to try to help me out with the problem other than tell me that I am only guaranteed up to 70% of what I pay for.
