Since I'm not using my laptop anymore because I can't afford to renew my warranty, I'm only going to use it for GPS when we go on trips and it's really slow so I'm going to have to reformat it so when we do go on trips the GPS will load much quicker. Although, I would love it if we could buy a $99 TomTom.
When I was using my laptop, I had it specifically for all the IM programs like MSN Messenger, Yahoo IM, AIM, ICQ, Skype and MySpace IM. Plus I was using it for Microsoft Money 2004. It came with the laptop. But since I'm not longer using the laptop I had to install all of those programs onto my desktop and since I'm not playing EverQuest anymore then I have no reason not to have those run on the desktop.
The only drawback is that when I turn the computer on I have to wait forever for it to load. The laptop typically took about 10-30 minutes to load. Yeah, I know. I've reformatted it but then as soon as I install all that crap back on there it takes forever again to load.
So why do I have all these IM programs installed? Because some people absolutely will not use some IM programs. Like for example, my cousin refuses to use anything but ICQ. Well, he's the only person that I know who uses ICQ. I have friends who will not use anything but MSN Messenger. Some friends will only use AOL or AIM. So in order to accommodate all those people I have to have 6 IM programs running at the same time.
Actually, to be honest I stopped using ICQ because my cousin never gets on it so why keep loading it? All I get are spam IM's so if he can't get on another IM program then I'm not going to accommodate him. I mean, he ain't using ICQ so why should I have to load it right?
