Asleep at the wheel

[Guest Lil' Dave]

Guess this newsgroup monitoring is somewhat like Congress. Asleep at the

wheel. Wanna buy a watch?

How many people with "small savings

accounts" closed those accounts in

response ot recent ecomomic news...

 

Circumstance - Venezuela closing its

doors to U.S. ambassodors.

Shortly afterwards, a hurricane enters the

Gulf coast in vicinity of oil derrricks, and

onshore that has oil refinement capabilities.

Subsequently, the price of oil crude drops

dramatically.

The Russian version of Wall street is virtually

failiing for some "unknown reason".

A day later, the Russian Navy is having

Naval exercises with the Venezuelan Navy.

 

Are U.S. senators less obliged to fulfill their

obligation to represent their constiituents

if they are running for U.S. president?

Where were either one of them on Monday

September 22nd, 2008?

For some regulars, this NG is to publicize problems and

get solutions. If no Win98 users have any more problems, does

that not confirm the value of the OS?

Microsoft established the groups on this server (and the web

interface/mirror) as peer support forums. Computer manufacturers agreed

to handle any professional support users might be entitled to as part of

the users' OEM Windows 98 purchases. Microsoft's professional support

for boxed retail and upgrade copies of Windows 98 would probably be

subject to a several year old expiration date. Essentially Microsoft's

"support" is the newer versions of Windows.

Hi Don,

 

More likely it means not many people are using W98 any longer. I have 98

loaded in VirtualPC for reference use only. I sometimes miss tinkering with

it but the stability of XP overcomes that.
