Dude, I think it's clear that both mc2 and Chupacabra are made from the same cloth -- substanceless, bullshit, and total lack of experience in real world situations.
Everyone else on this thread has more experience (which could be taken as an insult, so, it's not meant to be), even you do.
Not even - he thinks more like some DeVry's 'graduate' who's been overdosing on reading the 'advice' columns in 'Computer Shopper'.
why are chubbies lights out? Well gone would be good news.
Hmmm... makes you wonder, eh?
Maybe he got bored looking at all the reds...?
Looks like he flounced:

Turn your PC into... 09-07-2010 09:09 AM chupacabra Actually, first time I installed Deep Freeze I uninstalled it the first day. Don't tell anyone :-D
...says the guy who thought apple will release a 4.01 software update to address the iPhone4's antenna (ie hardware) problems. (unless you thought that apples software adjustment of the 5 bar display constitutes a real fix :rofl: )
I mean, if you have so little clue about troubleshooting and diagnosis of tech problems in your "area of expertise" how on earth do you expect to get anything right outside of that ?
So Chubs, how many PCs/Users do you support?
:deadhorsebig:
You honestly think that's real? That was a green in response to a red someone gave me.Quote:

Go for it - tell us how you'd handle this, since I doubt you'd answer it any more than you'd answer HB's questions.
Let's see, the betting continues : 1000 THB that you won't provide an intelligent and reasonable reply to my query, and 1000 THB that you won't provide an intelligent and reasonable reply to HB.

Was that a yes?
I just want a yes or a no. Then I will answer.

I have the solution Quack Quack, just tell the fuckers artists to use one standard computer or they will be deepfreeze !!!
Sorry, I don't play kids games. If you don't want to answer the question because it makes you look like a complete c*nt, fair enough.Quote:

^ Yep, nailed it.
So, how many folks on three different fora has he been 0wned by so far?
I'm struggling to think of one department that might need frozen computers.
Maybe HR?
But even they might have a need to install something to read different document formats not supported by their Office Suite.
I know:
Welcome to Iceland Foods Ltd.
:mid:
All the shared PC's at my university (500+) are frozen. each account has a network drive on the server.
Actually its more than 500, each lab has 30PCs and my building alone there are at least 10 computer labs, then we have the library which has hundreds of PCs on one level then all the other buildings have their own labs, so it is probably closer to 2000+ frozen computers. This is just one campus, there are 3 other campuses.
It would be a nightmare for the IT guys to maintain the computers if they were not frozen.
Fixed that.Quote:
