Somewhat off topic, but I just installed these wireless usb to vga adapters in my conference rooms (wireless projection). They work exactly as advertised and are very cool little gadgets for cheap.

I've also got users who swear they've deleted almost all of their email, yet their mail file is 25 gb and they're inbox contains 14,000 emails. perception is a wonderful thing.

Hence why IT has to set email quotas in the first place...if you need the email that badly, archive it off the server.

Trust me, i know. Corp. policy precludes the individual site admins from doing this. Instead, we get a padded portion of our desk to bang our head's on...

I can't fix your computer but I am sick of political talk.

Re: Sick of politics here? Fix my computers!

Coincidence for sure. Depending on the mobo, tapping F2 during a reboot should have put you into the BIOS...most likely you fiddling with the receiver "fixed" the connection.

Angry, that's nice, but it's not wireless and there is no horizontal scroll wheel. Clearly the other one is superior.
