  1. Ill put it together, I just wont pack the reserve or install the cypres "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  2. Ok, another question... The slider on the cloud has a hole in it, not a rip, but actually has a hole in it (JUST like in the reserve sliders) It is directly in the middle of it, with re-enforcing tape crossing diag from each corner to the opposite one... Would that make this suck to take terminal?

  3. Solder it back to a working condition? Cheap and effective! "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  4. Ahh, the differences between people that know me and those that dont... The ones that know me think it will kill me if I jump the rig, the rest think it would be a good jump for me! I have no doubt about landing it... If I could get it repacked for free this week, I would jump it this weekend, but Im not paying for a repack and only get to jump it once or twice "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  5. I wonder what I could sell the container for... "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  6. Oh, I am planning on jumping the Cloud, Just not sure I want to jump it in that container... It barely fits, a bit tight for my liking. I fully intend on jumping it, maybe not all at the same time, but all eventually...

  7. It actually looked in decent shape for gear that old, atleast thats what I and a couple others thought... No jumping it yet, maybe once I get back from this deployment, Ill get that 26' round packed back up, but Im thinking Ill jump my sabre2 instead of that cloud xl "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  8. You're right! The reserve DOM is '79, the harness DOM is '81... Its not that bad then! "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
  9. I'm very computer illiterate so consider the source... How about a used laptop and then installing Linux Mint on it? I'm playing with Mint on a seperate machine and i'm liking what I'm seeing, so far. You can no longer claim you're illiterate if you know of and use linux...

  17. I did that once cause I wanted to make the sunset load and it took me forever to get my new canopy in the bag. The opening caught me off guard, almost chopped it, thought I had a bag lock or something...

  20. Agreed on the dell, Ive had my Inspiron E1505 for 4 years, just bought a new Studio 15 couple weeks ago. They are easy to work on, have their entire service manual online and dont have the same issues as all of my friends HPs. I dont know about the Mac hardware, but from what Ive seen, they work fine for years.

  21. Its absolutely amazing how shit like that works... My system works BETTER with the dish covered in snow, but as soon as it starts to melt and re-freeze, it works like shit...

  22. Well, we should find out who he is, and get him talking to a lawyer... A GOOD lawyer. "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message

    XP Pro / W7?

    Did that, tried backleveling it to 8.5 also. No go. Wendy P. From what I've "read" on the "internet" (so, take with a grain of salt for that part), plus my own experience a few months ago, when AVG upgraded to 8.5 and beyond, it pretty much sh*t the bed. Having said that, there have been a couple recent threads about effective, free, anti-virus software. I heard there's a MS anti-virus out there...MSE? I don't know if it's free or not. I'm using Kaspersky now, which isn't free, but isn't expensive either, and seems to operate with little interference. I'm sure it's not perfect...I guess time, and surfing will tell. First off, yes, you are a geek! Second, Microsoft Security Essentials seems to work... Ive noticed it caught viruses before my AVG would, but it also REALLY slows my computer down on boot... atleast on my XP Pro laptop.

    XP Pro / W7?

    Thats odd, I have AVG free, its taking ~4mb of memory, 0% cpu right now. Maybe a remove/reinstall will fix it? "I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message
