Don't Like Google &Microsoft ,Don't Use !!!

its simple as ABC , DOn't like Google and microsoft products try alternatives. We all can't be held at randsom (tech wise ) with people who don't want change or people who want everyone to side with their views .

I Love google desktop and love the Idea of Gdrive , i know the risks going into this and Love XP (looking forward to Vista )

if you don't like Windows there are option (for those who don't know Mac and linux are popular options)and Yahoo is another popular search engine

Well what exactly do you want them to talk about? Maybe you should take your own advice, don't like what they say on the podcast? Don't listen! I mean what is the point in them even doing the podcast if they don't have an opinion? I for one hope that the keep up with their hilarious banter it makes my drives to work very entertaining!

Geez I was so excited to join the forums after listening to this podcast for a month now, but people here are so grumpy.

Not everyone is grumpy...

From my experience (I've only been here like a month or so, I think..), this is the best forum group I've come across. Everyone is very passionate about BOL (as well they should be! Wink ), and people are quite friendly and very helpful.

At least, that's how the community has been to me. I just jumped right in, and was welcomed with open arms, so to speak..

Plus, I haven't been in a forum where the hosts are active in the forums too. They love our participation in here, and I'm sure we all enjoy it just as much as they do.

I'm here to stay for quite some time.

Molly seems excited about the prospect of Gdrive. Pretty much from the start of BOL, she has been championing network attached storage.

No you are right, for the most part people are really nice, I think maybe I just chose the wrong posts to read all in a row. LOL I am also really enjoying it so far, and I agree the fact that they talk on the forum is really awsome!
