HELP!!! Every roster is in a damn zipped folder!!! WTF???

[dan77733]

Well, I solved the problem to the way it was when I was using 2000. After downloading the trial version, I purchased WinZip and it automatically unzips all the files when I download them. So, instead of seeing a zipped folder when that download security message pops up after you click on a download, it's automatically good to go and while zipped folders can be used, I didnt want it that way. I'm used to the files already being unzipped like in 2000. Bottom line is that im a happy camper and that's all that matters.

schwally -

Windows 2000 was obviously outdated but here's a better one - im still using dial-up 56K. Well, at least for another week or so until I receive my broadband modem from NetZero. Hell, I was using dialup since 2000 when I had Dreamcast and PlanetWeb was used as the web browser. Yep, im old school. LOL.

we even have cell phones and high definition television as well...

Cell Phones are good if you're a person who needs it for work or if you're a parent and have young kids so you can stay in contact with them. All these other idiots who have them just so they can bs or text the same crap everyday only do so because they have nothing else better to do. Thankfully, im not one of those people.

HDTV is good but im not spending thousands of dollars just to get a better picture. Just one of many reasons why I have no interest in next gen gaming.

But hey, to each his own.

I hate texting mainly because all these idiots at work tend to do that than actully work which keeps me there longer and thus pisses me off. And then they wonder why they only get 10 hours a week. Plus, everyone seems to get in the habit of texting to the point where they never actually see and hang out with the person that they're texting all the time. I would much rather talk to people face to face.

I have been out of HS for over a decade so the friends I had moved on and are long gone.

My dialup service will be obsolete in another day or two as I already signed up for NetZero Broadband DSL. It's already been activated. I'm just waiting for the kit to arrive via DHL.

Another reason that I have no interest in having a cell phone or a sidekick is the money factor. My friend was getting an $80+ bill or his cell phone. Once his contract ended, he decided to just pay for a set amount of minutes. He's down to about half of what he was paying. For me personally, a cell phone is just another bill that I dont want.

56k? Wow. Does that somehow make you a technophobe?
