You did not post an opinion as much as make some wildly inaccurate
statments. You where speaking on a subject where you had absolutly no clue
and instead of asking what the facts where, you decided to create a fantasy
sceniero.

Then you obviously need to spend more time reading the posts here.

Could have fooled me. You took Bruce's post for rude? You ARE new to the
internet. Try REALLY reading through some of the messages posted to usenet
and you will see what rude really is. Things can take on a whole new meaning
on the internet, and what you think is "rude", may simply be the norm. Like
I said, you need a thicker skin if your going to be reading and posting in
open forums.
> I have no idea what you mean by being a "troll." Is that meant to be some
sort of insider insult?
A "troll" is someone who posts a message he knows is wrong or is certain to
cause a controversy, simply to get a reaction from others.
Your posting had all of the tell tale signs, posted to multiple groups,
containing wildly innacurate information, etc. It was not meant as an
insult, do you have some kind of complex or something? So far you seem to be
acting like everything is a personal attack on you. You need to grow up and
stop acting like a child.

How much is Chiense tea going for these days?
>I simply came here looking for help on why Win 95 failed to boot after I
swapped my 233 Mhz motherboard for a 1 Gzh motherboard.
Thats a very simply question that you already had answered in the other
forums you posted to. Did you bother to go back and read the answers?
Also, it's a little like an XP user going to a Macintosh forum for help. XP
and 95 have very little relation to one another beside the "Windows" in
thier names.

longer supported. The knowledge base was of little help either.
It's there if you look.

you have my thanks and appreciation.
