SO put it on the laptop...

It makes a world of difference!! I have a Dell Mini 9 with a solid state drive and 2GB of ram, and it boots up Windows 7 incredibly fast. Waking from sleep mode is like 5 seconds, though going to sleep is about 10 or so.

I just need to get around to a HD LED hack - I hate that I can't tell when the HD is reading/writing.

On the same topic - sort of - I just used a hack to downgrade my iPhone back to 3.0 OS. I had the tethering hack installed and use bluetooth to get internet access on the netbook where ever I am through the iPhone.

Then I got all giddy when I saw the new iPhone OS and upgraded without thinking about my hack, and knowing that Apple would likely kill it.

I went through almost two weeks of withdrawals before I found a download of OS 3.0 and a hack that let's you downgrade. Life is now good once again.

I like this feature of Windows 7...... the touch capabilities. I have one PC running allready that is dedicated to just my home camera security that is touch screen.

I know... I so need a touch screen. I have too much now though... my grandson, who just started kindergarten, asked me "why do you have 5 computers" :lol:

To be fair... one is the netbook, one is the security cams, and he counted the two monitors on the mac as two computers, so I only have 4. And each one has a different OS.

I sure hope that instruction book has pictures!!! :readthemanual:

Ther was no instructions..... I dont need no freakin instructions.....

I also did some weight reduction to the laptop... leftover screws :lol:

It really wasnt as hard as it looked.

THe worst part was trying to get a 160gb drive to copy to a 60gb.
Didnt go so well so I said screw it and installed fresh.
Good thing I have a buddy who owns a computer store and allowed me to be ther until 1130 tonight.

He left for a while and then came back infact.
