Recently got enough again to get a 360 and some of the older games until I get more. So..yeah...in a nutshell I guess thats how I am not spending my own money on it. Its what work gives me

Those are some pretty cool benefits. What line of work?

its just not hard earned money

Yeah, its just not my dime I'm spending. Its the company's dime basically so I don't consider it my own money

Inbound sales for local phone company

Yes..I hate doing sales but the benefits of sales is good enough to stay until I can settle into a job that has a better career goal for me.

well i could say i dont spend any of my money either, i spend the money my work gives me every week. lol

i guess money is only 'yours' if you make it youself.

I hope I'm not confusing this =/ I still get a regular paycheck. Its the "side incentives" that I get that are above and beyond the normal paycheck. Hence why I consider it that I'm not spending my own money because my regular paycheck is real money

oh i understand completely. and i know fully it doesnt feel like yoru spending your own money, because i feel the same way. im just giving you a hard time about it.

im just saying, technically, its still 'money' given to you from your job. you could buy things you need, or things you want with it. but its still on some level spending your money. lol

Jonbo298 · 09-03-2006, 03:27 PM

Yeah yeah yeah...there isnt anything I need that I could get from these. Since I can't redeem them for bill payments or car payments >.>

If I buy XP Professional to run on my Mini under Bootcamp, will it recognize and take advantage of the dual processors?

this depends, have you installed the flux capacitor yet?

GameMaster · 09-03-2006, 11:39 PM

Yep!

And I'm pleased to announce that your smart alec gauges are running at full power!

Null · 09-04-2006, 12:02 AM

Excellent!

however im sorry to say, that wont recognize and take advantage of the duel processors because you built a time machine instead of a computer.

BUT! there is a bright side, you can now go back in time and fix this error in judgement before it occured.
