The cat must have stepped on my laptop keyboard while the Gmail tab was open, because now it's all bigger (the fonts), but none of the other tabs are. Any idea how I change it back?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
What browser? If it's Firefox, View menu, Zoom, Reset.

The status is NOT quo.
I have wireless through AT&T and don't recall any problems with the install or use (except that one time when Pix was here and I couldn't remember the WEP code and ran around like a crazy person looking for it while she laughed and laughed).
I would never laugh at you. Well okay, maybe a little. But it was a laugh born of love.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
New Tiny Tape Recorders (Feb, 1960)
The Smart Sony (Jan, 1983) A Sony PC from 1983? I don't remember that. It ran CP/M.
Introducing the Sony small business computer system. The Sony that shows the top rated programs that help you make smarter business decisions.
The Sony system that’s easy enough for a doctor, lawyer or chief executive to learn to use. Yet smart enough for accounting, billing, inventory word processing and endless other complex, profit oriented chores. It can even talk to other computers, big and small.

FYI: iTunes slowdowns with Google DNS
Last night we tried to rent an iTunes movie on our newish Apple TV. Instead of starting right away, the Apple TV said it would be 2+ hours before we could start watching. I’ve got a healthy 15-20Mb/s connection and a clean wire to the Apple TV, so this shouldn’t be happening.
A little bit of research turned up a surprising fix: Don’t use Google DNS.
...iTunes’ video content is delivered by Akamai who has distributed massive datastores around the world so those large files originate from nearby servers and spend less time getting switched around the network. Akamai somehow uses our DNS routing to determine our location. If Google DNS or OpenDNS routes everyone to Akamai the same way, then those Akamai nodes and the pipes leading to them get overwhelmed.
Since most people don’t know what a DNS server is, this problem primarily affects the “tech-vanguard” and those fortunate/unfortunate enough to be inside our circles of helpfulness.
I switched to my ISP’s DNS servers and now HD rentals on Apple TV are ready to watch in 10-20 seconds.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Wow, it had 3.5" floppies. It ran CP/M, but it couldn't read the disks from any other CP/M system on the market at the time. Probably why it failed in the marketplace.

Not that I didn't already believe that Drew was right, but I was talking to a friend last night and he told me that his mom was on her third Vizio TV in a year and a half. :)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why do you buy Vizio #3 in that scenario? Are they crack-laced?
