Stick with the basic cheeseburgers...

Once you have some experience you can move up to the Bacon Doubles...


Seriously....the markets are different all over the country.

40k is nothing in place and a boat load in others.

Perfect...start you own consulting biz....

Charge $35 or $40 an hour...even in Kentucky you should be able to get that.

I get $50 to $65 here in Maryland without anyone batting an idea...in fact that is too cheap.

microsoft will say no i say yes and no the first one you install on is good. the rest are good for for 30 days do the windows activation on the first one and dont do the windows activation on the rest vader what is that thing that make the desktop 3d i think that wont work till you do the windows activation so you will only have that on the first one it would be good if you had a older computer and wanted to see how if runs on it

I have 64bit XP, I'm running XP Pro,and it runs like a champ. I was wondering about Vista and how it will run on my processor.

I guess I'll know when I try it, huh?

It is illegal. Forget what features are and what are not available.

You are legally allowed to install the copy on ONE computer and one computer only.

OEM copies may only be installed on the computer they shipped with. If you buy another computer and throw the old one away the OEM copy that came with the original computer may NOT be used on the new computer.
