I despise my English teacher. I loathe school in general really. It's my last year and it really does seem pointless. I have the grades I need but I'm staying because there's simply nothing else to do. |
That's a shame, Steve. Have you been looking at jobs already so you're lined up to do something straight out of college? |
I want to go straight onto Uni. I've handed in CVs to some places but I haven't heard anything. Most people my age are struggling to find employment. |
Oh, my bad, I assumed you were in your last year of Uni.  Yeah, it is rough trying to find a job in this day.

That's your problem, it's really not hard at all. And I never had any problems with it until this computer, which is crashing IE because of problems on its own.
I don't need or want split-screen. Not sure how I ever lived without tabs, though. |
My brother still hasn't grasped the idea of "tabs" yet.

What's really bizarre is that some of the computers outside of the library (including the science lab!) only have IE 6, with tabs provided by Yahoo! :/ And of course students can't install anything so I am powerless to even make a slight improvement to 7 like the other computers. What I really want to know is how I've seen several people playing WoW on library computers.

Adblock+ is vital for me, as is tabs. Plus Firefox is so much more user-friendly.

Henry, they most likely brought the game on an external like a large flash drive and are running it off of that, just using the school's internet.

At least my college installs Firefox alongside the newest IE.

I've never been to the computer labs here but I wouldn't want to because they're all Windows, and if I really want to use windows anyways I have Boot Camp so I can run it on my Mac.
My old high school had Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Opera installed on all the computers.

Is that really possible? Wikipedia says it's a 25 gb install, and it seems like USB's practical 18 mb/s transfer limit would really make that difficult...

Linuxes are also very good computers; they also run on a UNIX programming code.
