WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

<Jim> I promise to post at least twice a day twice a (three times on Sunday) if you open your forum today. Anyway sometimes my forum goes weeks without anyone posting and it doesn't matter to me. You don't want me to make you a cause celebre, right? The majority demands you open your forum today!

That would be UCLA's 231,432th National Championship. Most of any school!

Dec-08-13  Travis Bickle: Hey Bugs I bought a new PC. It's a Hewlett Packard ENVY & has windows 8.0. What is your official opinion on this windowistic tom foolery sir?

P.S. I got a message from Microsoft or HP can't remember which, to upgrade to 8.1, so I entered my comps Product No. as requested & I got the answer, "your model hasn't been tested yet, so your system could lose some fuctionality"!? YIKES!

P.S. #2 What to do, what to do?

You're Pal, Travis

Dec-08-13  Travis Bickle: Also Bugs, how do I adjust the playing board at Playchess.com or any chess site so that the board is square instead of rectangular?

  WannaBe: Holy Guacamole,

<Travis Bickle> I don't like Win8, if they say that, don't upgrade yet.

And unfortunately, I don't play at playchess.com, so I am no help there.

<NakoSonorense> Will check it out tonight!

Dec-19-13  Alien Math: Remind about possible upgrades, select computer type, add maker to upgrade to, next add + problems for search,

<Hewlett Packard ENVY upgrade to windows 8.1 + problems> gain chance at view possible problems/solutions if upgrade.
