| Well there's .PNG but those files take up more memory. When it come to photos I believe that Jpeg is the better choice. |

| A couple hundred bucks for an office suite, when OOo is free. It's hard to believe but all the people (including teachers) hate on Open Office. When I told someone that I switched from MsOffice to OOo the guy said that was ret*d! I just don't get those people sometimes. Honestly I think that they j... |

| Not only do I think that the possible life out there is too far away to be able to actually communicate with, but it also might be too obscure for us to even recognize as life or even intelligent. Like the planet in the novel Solaris. wiki'd |

| Ok, I have an idea how I'll work this. Tomorrow at school I'll take my boot disk and USB hard drive to my computer class and get help while using one of the classroom's computers to do the work on while I get help from the kid I met that uses Fedora. There's a chance I'll be able to disconnect it's ... |

| ^That graph is hugely inaccurate. Given the wider variety of P2P utilities in Linux, as well as more methods to circumvent any restrictions that your ISP may impose on you, Linux is definitely the best for watching porn. It's satire. :roll: Eggman, gramirez... stop being useless eejits. Right after... |

| Yes :). Avast! is a good scanner in my opinion. It has an on-access scanner that might prevent any viruses from sneaking onto your computer, but it usaully good to ran the major scanner once and awhile too. Some things you might need to know first is that you need to register it, but this is simple ... |
