Anybody thinking of setting up a dual boot system would also be well advised to make sure they have the Windows Recovery Console installed. If something goes wrong with the boot loader you may need it to restore the mbr.

You can boot it off of the Windows XP Install Disc.

I keep a bootable version of Linux and a Windows 98 bootable floppy (so I can use fdisk )

Be very careful with Linux. I'm paticularily wary of it when I completely fked the MBR and didn't have a clue how to fix it at the time. However, it is a great alternative. I still prefer to use Windows though.

It is very interesting to hear why non-US citizens think one should / shouldn't be our president, in fact fairly humorous at times, and VERY frustrating at others.

The US president has a huge influence on the rest of the world, which is why non US citizens discuss it.

Huh?

" Those words mean something to me, as somebody who has been in combat. "Last resort." "

Quote from John Kerry ^^

While we're on the subject. The whole "who has seen the most combat" debate is rediculous. I can't see how the amount of combat a potential president has seen should have any bearing on the decision process. Americans seem to take it very seriously though.

And Kerry is the one who likes to talk about that the most smile

We want someone who will go to war as an absolute last resort and I don't believe Bush did that

I don't paticularily want a president who starts talking about his combat experience in Vietnam when last resort is mentioned roll

I think Bush performed much better in the 2nd debate. I don't like either of them, but I am supporting Bush.

I watched an interview with a US tank driver in Iraq.. he made a good point. 
Basically he said stop arguing about why we are here, because we are here, whether the reason was justified or not. Concentrate your efforts on sorting it out, not arguing why it happened in the first place.

I agree to a point; I think the why should be sorted out later. Get Iraq sorted out first.

This is quite a simple addition but is very useful when searching for things. When viewing a thread which you have found through search, can the search terms be highlighted?

If you were soldier, britain or american, you wouldn't say that.

Why? Sure, Bush led them into the war, but Kerry isn't going to withdraw from Iraq if he does get into office anyway. Kerry is constantly changing his stance on Iraq, I can't remember anymore what he thinks...

By the way, are you a soldier?

I don't like either Kerry or Bush, but would vote Bush. I despise Kerry's election tactics and propositions. Sure, Kerry can talk pretty, doesn't mean he would be a good president. I have seen many a time when Kerry has embarassed himself badly... he just seems confused.

I also dont like the attitude of a few forum members who run around saying "Its supposed to be lite, thats a bloat feature.", while true, any feature beyond a put and get is a bloat feature...CSS, XHTML, Smilies, BBCode, User Groups, Moderation, Admin, Login, Registration...while its bloat to one person, it might not be bloat to others.

So users should just ignore features they disagree with? Are we not entitled to an opinion?

I agree it might not be bloat to another, but people who think it is bloat should just not post their thoughts?

*imagines the amount of emails one would recieve with a busy forum*

I was only putting forward an opinion. And since this is not meant to be a bloated script with features which aren't needed, I felt it necessary to make a post about your requested feature.

If other people find it necessary, fine; implement it.
