Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Hey. New board.

Apparently, the only real difference (besides the HP logo on the back) is that Applecare is unavailable for the HP one.

Thanks all.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I thought I'd ask here before venturing too far into the scary world of the rest of the internet.

I just got Age of Empires 2 for my Mac. Does anyone know a way to pop out of the game (like, for an IM) without exiting it (i.e.-minimize the window)?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

All is well that ends in pizza.

suprnova is back

Oddly I can't get there without adding www. to the address.

It might be a part of the propagating lag.

Wolfram,

if you want to get a bit fancy, you can put an excel table in a Word document and when you open the Word document it will check with Excel to see if you have updated said document.

I found this feature very cool, but I only have used it once.

How do you do that?

Go to Word help and look for linked and embedded objects

that should help walk you through it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Go to Insert / Object. From there it's pretty simple.

If you select the "Link to file" option, your changes to the Excel spreadsheet done outside of Word will be reflected in the Word doc.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

or do what tommy says.

I think the Word help is pretty decent on this because it does a nice job explaining linking and embedding and the differences in outcomes.
