i have seen and been through this issue. What we determined was that the print driver that was being installed used a similar either ini or dll file that the new driver updated. That then caused all of the existing printers to need an updated driver on each client. That was a headache for a few days.

@Dashrender i heard/read that there is a new variant of this that uses different protocols and was changed from a peer to peer to ??(cannot remember right now what connection is being used) to cover their tracks.

@RAM. will be excited, that is if he is still alive....anyone heard from him lately

@scottalanmiller i expected them to lose but not in the fashion they did. 4 goals in 5 minutes is pretty amazing.

and the host nation is going down in flames today at the hand of Germany. I didn't see that one coming!

@scottalanmiller i have been to London and was even at wembley stadium for a match. While yes it is quite a bit more popular there, here pro soccer is relatively new. It is still gathering strength in terms of viewers and popularity. But there are soccer camps, leagues, and so on going on all over the country so no this is not a trend. Like i have already stated just because you aren't seeing it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. I have provided multiple examples to disprove your posts and reasoning. Soccer is gaining strength in the US and will continue to do so.

@Carnival-Boy from what i have seen/read there are public viewing parties throughout the nation. Now I'm not sure if every major metro area has viewing parties but I know there are many that do.

@scottalanmiller i beg to differ sir. With the world cup going on ESPN servers crashed due to the influx of online stream requests last Thursday. Soccer (football) is getting more and more popular. Do you see the coverage of the viewing parties where they shut down streets and it is jam packed? I think your comment was very short sided since the US does in fact care about global games.

Americans will watch anything in ESPN. What I've seen is it is all foreigners living here, not American citizens.

Once again i beg to differ. I'm american, my friends, my brother is, it doesn't matter we are all watching the US play in the world cup. Hell I was at buffalo wild wings last thursday to watch the game and it was packed to the point where they had to turn people away. While I fully understand this is your opinion that no one watches, but please don't speak for everyone on this. Why else would tens of thousands of people pack public parks to watch the games? Why are they opening Soldier Field for free so people can watch the game? Because people want to watch the game. From http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/World-Cup-Viewing-Party-Set-for-Soldier-Field-265129101.html. "Officials estimated that roughly 20,000 fans gathered to watch the Grant Park viewing parties. Soldier Field can hold about 62,000 fans." Those 20,000 people cannot be just comprised of foreigners. So please don't speak for everyone and say the americans don't watch soccer because you are dead wrong.

DOH!!! my bad, stupid mis-type

I knew this was going to happen. Now all streaming services that stream over the air broadcasts will be under attack

what are your thoughts on this ruling?
While I partially agree with the ruling I also think it is going to hinder new types of streaming services.

everything that i have seen is release date is sometime in august

@scottalanmiller it is A.J. so we have to ask

Yup. It was a 22-year-old girl (quite hot I might add).

did you hit on her?

@Bill-Kindle i can't help but smile at this one. Ryan is from my state, which is awesome. He is correct, the IRS expects us to keep all of this information but yet they cannot keep 6 months of emails? wtf. Do as we say but not as we do?

@garak0410 feel free to send to surface pro to me. I will get use out of it since mine hasn't been approved yet.

the next up and coming app communicates through one letter...... A

@Bill-Kindle i have been at my company for 2.5 years, we are a metal fab shop and I have had 3 hard drives go out in time i have been here. For several drives to "die" in the same week is very suspicious.

@Nic that didn't take long. It goes to show you that while you have an app that maybe successful it hasn't been fully vetted for security issues. I really wish companies would take a step back and have these apps tested before it goes public.
