I got version 2.19 and now have the "tile windows" thing, but I SWEAR it was missing in the last few releases. Can anyone confirm this?

Now I'm completely confused. Not only has that not appeared in the last few updates(at least) of Window FX I've gotten from SD Central, but SD Central shows a BETA of 2.19, and you seem to have a version 2.2. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?!? AM I LOSING MY MIND!?!? I thought I may have been fuzzy brained or something, but that ion is just not there! What do you think?

Full. Where exactly in config is it?

It could be that I'm in a state of perplexedness, but the ability to tile windows on the desktop seems to be missing from my copy of Windows FX. Did they take it out? If so, can I get the old version? I really liked that feature! Thanks, Julian

Hey, Rob, great job. Looks like you really did your homework here. I wonder if those who posted on the Bush side of this forum would vote for Kerry if it was absolutely certain that they would benefit from it, or if they're so diehard that they'll vote Republican even if it is guaranteed to hurt their interests. To me, that does'nt seem like smart business!

Mr. Wardell, would you be willing, if Kerry is elected, to keep us posted(in whatever level of detail you would be willing, of course) on how his presidency is affecting your business? I think that would be interesting. OT: how come my points went to -29 and my rank from in the 300's to 3,482, especially when there only seems top be 2,000 users listed in the rankings? Did I do something wrong? If so, please tell me what it is so that I can refrain

Brad, do you think that no one benefitted when Clinton managed to completely eliminate the deficit during his administration? During that time, we had great unemployment rates and an economic boom. What you claim to be not a theory, but a fact, has major problems with it. First of all, what you are doing here amounts to short-term thinking with blinders on. These tax cuts are a quick fix that ignore fundamental issues in both economics and ethics

Reply to Why John Kerry's tax increase will cost jobs in Business JoeUser Forums

What no one has mentioned is that Kerry does not propose to raise taxes(which he only plans to do by eliminating the highly controversial Bush tax cut) without already having a thoroughly thought-out plan to create jobs. Kerry's team has put together a detailed plan which they say will create ten-million jobs in the next four years. It doesn't sound to me that anyone could be terribly hurt by the creation of that many jobs, compared to the three millio

You think putting an end to ethnic cleansing which claimed the lifes of hundreds of thousands unjust? Besides, I was not debating the justness of the Iraq war, but the false pretexes which were utilized in an attempt to gain acceptance for it. It would not have been nearly as bad if Bush had said:"look, they're killing people like flies over there, let's go give those poor suckers a hand up". But he DELIBERATELY preyed upon the sensibilities of a

The 37% figure was reported on CNN tonight. Super, I wasn't basing my opinion of today's education system at all on that generations ago. I am a product of the modern system, and I was simply saying that through discussions with my Father, I have learned that we are not exposed to the same level of critical thinking and status-quo questioning as they were. I'm sure there are areas where our modern system is better than that of the past, but you hav

One can easily tell the depth and thourougness of both the European education system and the approach Europeans take to their politics in Mr. Edney's posts. My father, who is now 73, tells me that when he was educated right here in America, the teachers at even the elementary school level covered topics concerning government's responsibility to the people and the abuse of power that would NEVER make it into a classroom today, maybe not even at the

I can't understand that anyone would think that people who oppse the Iraq war do not have a position. In fact, they have a very strong position: that President Bush has used the tragedy of 9/11 as an excuse to invade a country which, although ruled by a terrible dictator, was not the enemy it was made out to be, therefore, the loss of human life and gigantic burden to the taxpayer is unjustified. The fact is, there are dictatorships all over t

I think it obvious that people who say things like "we are practically living in a police state" are fully aware that they are exaggerating, just as people like Ashcroft are aware that under current conditions they could never attempt to fully stifle dissent or they would face mass outrage. The point is that their INTENT is to limit freedoms, and history teaches us that if one does not pay attention, civil rights can erode at a fierce rate. I am not sa

Ask the thousands of seniors without prescription drug coverage if they think our current healthcare plan "works well". While you worry to no end that the ultra-rich might lose a million here or a million there, you fail to take into account that there is much more to life than accumulating wealth and that doing so does little or nothing for the GLOBAL GOOD. To the contrary, the policies of those who believe that the universe revolves around business a

Sam, in this country, Republicans, rather than use taxpayer dollars to fund valuable social programs(as you do in Europe and most humane and sensible countries also do), prefer to funnel this money to the wealthiest people in this country, in the name of "smaller government". The reason they want a smaller government is so there is less regulation on business, and large corporations can continue to have their cake and eat it-along with everyone else's.

Reply to Why John Kerry's tax increase will cost jobs in Business JoeUser Forums

I I agree with both of you in some ways. I definitely appreciate the efforts and needs of the small businessperson. To me, small business is the best kind of business-people who use their skills, knowledge, and drive to create something for themselves and their families, and provide the invaluable service to the country of providing jobs. I guess I'd have to say that unless Kerry took into account the needs of small business owners, his plan wouldn't b

Brad, I don't share the idea that having more products to buy makes the standard of living any better. We do need good homes, cars, food(and software!) but I think there is just so much junk out there that no one could possibly need that the over capatilization of our world has become surreal. I am also dubious that Kerry's plan WILL hurt the job market. In the past year I've watched(on the news) and read(in newsmagaszines and journals) dozens of this

Jill, I really didn't mean to offend you in any way, and I wasn't referring to you as flippant or ego oriented, I was just trying to describe the attitude taken to it's extreme, and I probably ended up misrepresenting what I was thinking. Although I don't know you personally, it's easy to conclude from your other posts that you are not such a person. If my comments were taken that way, I sincerely apologize. I realize I got pretty wordy, but what I ba

Jill, you statement "life is a game" is also telling of the attitude you currently hold. Similar ideaologies are the very reason life is currently in dire straits. Such a philosophy bears a great deal of disrespect for all that is life, including people. I'm not trying to sound preachy or criticize you as a person, as I know we all need to sometimes look at certain aspects of life with detachment in order to function. But when we come to adopt such ess

There is far more to this than just the needs of small business owners. While they are certainly benefitting from Bush's tax cuts, it would be more than naive to think that small business owners are the group Bush had in mind when he and his financial team sat down to create this plan. This Bush administration has been the most arrogant in history in it's unabashed support for giving multimillion dollar tax breaks to the very wealthiest in this nation(

The F1 administration needs to stop emasculating tracks like Hockenheim and making rediculous rules(check out the new qualifying format) and begin recognizing and respecting the heritage of the sport. How do they figure that the pinnacle of motorsport should feature grooved tires, auto transmitions of ANY sort, changes that have taken all the excitement out of qualifying, etc., etc.? The kind of qualifying runs that Senna used to produce, the kind that made the hairs on the back of your neck sta

I am using the latest version. I did give some examples, but it happens with so many different suites that I don't know if it helped much. I've reinstalled the whole package several times, even redownloaded everything, but I still get this "the file type you have passed for (app name here) is not valid" message.

Thanks Peter and Infogeek for your comments. Do you think the ease of creating and spreading music nowadays will lead to a situation where quantiy far exceeds quality? While I respect the brilliance of the above-mentioned musicians(especially Hendrix, who I feel had the rarest musical gifts), I think the discipline and knowledge required by older composers allowed them to display their ideas with far greater levels of sensitivity and expression than i

Answer from SDSupport on Suites issue in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I had posted to this board about difficulty applying suites with Theme Manager, and was told my best bet would be to contact Stardock. Well, they got back to me and their response was that the suites must have been put together incorrectly. What's the deal with this? If it's the truth, there must be a heck of a lot of suites out there that are incorrectly assembled, because this happens with almost every suite I try! Do you guys think SD is correct, or could there be another problem? Does anyone
