jvlgato Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Great news, Al! Dammit, you shouldn't have to live year to year like that is the only thing ... but great news, nonetheless!
guzziguy Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Congrats Bryan. College was one of the most fun times of my life. I hope that it was yours too. Raffy, maybe it's time to consider US citizenship. Do you qualify yet? Great news Al.
raffy Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Raffy, maybe it's time to consider US citizenship. Do you qualify yet? Yes I qualify but you have to have a foreign passport that is valid for 6 or more months to be able to apply. So I will have to renew my passport and then go for US citizenship if I wish to.
Torpedo Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Great news all around, I'm really really glad for you
Absorbine_Sr Posted May 10, 2011 Report Posted May 10, 2011 Bryan, good job. Al, glad to hear things are better. Hang in there!
Salt Peanuts Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Spent the last 3 hours installing WIndows 7 on MBP using Boot Camp - I had forgotten how long it takes to install an OS from scratch. Now trying to figure out why my wife's laptop has started randomly freezing few minutes after starting.
swt61 Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Hmmm, I spent all of yesterday installing windows too. Thermal pane, shatter resistant, storm rated, heavy fuckin' windows.

Now trying to figure out why my wife's laptop has started randomly freezing few minutes after starting. Have you considered using Parallels instead of boot camp? I use boot camp on my older MBP but we use Parallels in the 5 iMacs we recently bought for the office and it works great. I won't use boot camp on my next mac.
grawk Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 I'd do a boot camp install, then run it in parallels
Aura Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Thanks everyone, I don't feel done quite yet, just hasn't hit me. Amazing amazing news Al, really happy for you.

I thought about Parallels but only thing I really will be using the Windows is to run couple of games, so I stuck with boot camp.
tyrion Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 I thought about Parallels but only thing I really will be using the Windows is to run couple of games, so I stuck with boot camp. That makes sense.
cetoole Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Thanks everyone, I don't feel done quite yet, just hasn't hit me. I guess it will probably take about a week and a half for it to hit you. Congrats though!
shellylh Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Congrats Al and Bryan! Ric: Does the "mindfold" work?
blessingx Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 (edited) Not sure. What year is it? If time travel doesn't work, I hope it's at least a poor mans Musicmask. There it's kinda working. Edited May 11, 2011 by blessingx
boomana Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 Congrats to Brittnie/Mike, Bryan and Al! Wonderful news all around! As for me, due to my car being at the shop and their driver having to pick me up at work at 3PM to take me to it, I decided to take the last two hours off and get home early. Feel like an excited little kid skipping school. Congrats to me!
jvlgato Posted May 11, 2011 Report Posted May 11, 2011 You deserve it after staying so late on Friday.
sschell Posted May 12, 2011 Report Posted May 12, 2011 Met up with David Berning today to look over my recently acquired EA-230 (thank you Craigslist). Apparently, it's #8 of 10 pre-production units built in 1980. Not much of a looker, but David gave it a clean bill of health and was pretty enthusiastic about the Westinghouse 6JN6's. Pardon the grainy iPod picture.
HeadphoneAddict Posted May 12, 2011 Report Posted May 12, 2011 Good News! My wife was one of 5 teachers called back for the 2011/12 school year. No idea what she will be teaching, but at least she is employed. We can only hope those who are laid off are called back as well. At least we'll have breathing room for one more year. Woo Hoo!!! Great news.
