Microsoft took about two minutes of my life last night - they showed the Bill Gates-Jerry Seinfeld commerical during the football game. I replayed it to see if I missed something the first time. I didn't - I just don't get it.

and I'm buying a Mac for the holidays.

Sorry boys, no one took time from your life - you gave it to them.

I downloaded it, then didn't install it because it wanted me to back up my whole system first, and I was too lazy. Thanks for the heads-up!

I saw a new PC/Mac commercial last night. I sometimes wonder if I'm the only one who cracks up over every one of those ads in the series....

You're still clinging to the hope they'll revive the ol' WTVT...

Hey, you can never go wrong with the classics! All they need to do is come out to the landfill and get me. I'm under the big Betamax over by the crushed Yugo....

I interpreted that as just creating a System Restore point, or whatever they call it. That part is very quick. I'm glad I canceled my install, though, if it's going to take hours.

I had no trouble with SP3. It did take about an hour to install.

I would strongly advise you to do a clean boot using MSCONFIG first.

I don't know what that means.
