If they're still running xp in an enterprise environment they're gonna get a big surprise pretty soon here...
Really that was what I was pushing to fix. We were swapping in $200 Windows 7 HP refurbs that came with like 8gb of ddr3 ram, 1tb hard drives, quad core AMDs (hate AMD) and 90 day warranties, so it was more than worth it. I had a bunch setup but nowhere near enough to get everyone converted over. Now it's their problem when XP stops getting updates AND it's a huge medical firm dealing only with Medicare :shock:

I love my Windows 7, it runs so well. I've played with 8 and I don't think I'm in a huge rush to jump ship yet.

Yup. We have a handful of XP users here still. I'd say maybe 20 out of 500+. And they're in our remote offices, like Sarnia. I don't even know where the f*** Sarnia is haha. All I know is that it's in Canada, most likely next to Narnia.
Our scan tool at work is running Windows 98. Riddle me that. Not that it really needs an OS, but still. It's a $17,000 machine too. :lol:

Thats what it seemed like. I dont want to finance but i would. Just dont want a payment. I could easily finance and just pay off the loan. I realize thats not good for credit, but whatever. Free and clear car is better right now. So we continue to browse...
f**k it. If I could have bought my car without doing the loan I would have. I hate having a car payment.


You work at Porsche? Never knew that. I'll take a GT3, please.
LOL. Yup. Parts slinger. Only parts slinger for our dealership actually. Technically double certified (Porsche, Audi), but stopped doing Audi when I was set off on my own. I can still order and sell them, but I don't handle the calls or customers anymore, just the techs if they need anything. I have a boss but he works out of our Audi dealership in the next building. I kind of like the independence.

Hold off on the new 991 GT3. They put a stop manufacturing on them. Apparently on 2 German market ones one of the rod bolts came loose, destroying the engine and causing a car fire. :shock:

What teeth? I can't get the needle back off and now it doesn't work at all. I read you have to calibrate it by driving at a constant speed and then putting the needle on where that speed is.

Super bored today. All my riding friends are busy. I have nothing to do now that the Civic is running! I'm just getting way too damn impatient for my wheels :cussing:
