Ok so I go do some banking this morning, walking past an electronics shop and I think… "Ahh what the hell lets go price some digi cameras and some webcams"… so in I go, don’t really know much about them at all.

Cool I find one that is a webcam and digi camera all in one…. The guy asks if I have a USP port or somethingi like that so I shake my head. So he sells me a converter for a port just in case I don’t and if I do, I can bring it back….cool.

So I notice some CD writers sitting there on special at a great price and I think "what the hell I’ll have one of those also Mr."

And of course all the way I’m saying to him, "Do these work with Windows 95."
He says "YES." So that’s cool….

*Hey I like Windows 95*

So I take my digi camera/webcam and CD writer home. No USP port thingi so I set that up, I’m thinking "cool, clever chicki".

So I load the camera gear into the computer…. The programs say they are loaded but something is not quite write. So I reload them all….. then I read the box it all came in, like I had hoped the shop assistant had. Yep, wouldn’t you F**k’inwell know it, they only support Windows 98 and up.

F**K F**K F**K F**K F**K and double F**K for the final shot.

So I ring the stuff’in shop and say, "HEY dry balls what the stuff’in story, I asked if these ran on Windows 95 and you said YES".
"DUH doesn’t it." he says. At that moment I wanted to reach through the fibre optics like we have all wanted to at some stage.!!

So I ask him if they have any other cameras/cam that run on Windows 95. He said "yes we have, come on back." I’m thinking "Yeah right Bowzo, you told me that once before." So I told him to go check while I waited on the phone. And of course he come back and tells me that none run on 95 only 98 and above !!!!!!!

So I unhook everything and take them back to the shop for a full cash refund!!!!!!! Why couldn’t the dry balls of read up on when I asked while in the shop and seen that it would not run on 95!!!!!!!

So I shall look out the 98 I have sitting here somewhere and install, but I’m not going back to that bloody shop to buy the stuff, they can naff off !!!!

So now I gotta ring me IT guy to come install my CD Writer………

Ok, vent over….

And the moral of the story is: If you are a stuff’in shop assistant, know what the hell you are selling !!!!!!!
 
lmao

Hmm why not tell us how you really feel T.H.. lol
You should install win98 before you set up the cd writer as it will need the win98 drivers when you change to that sooner or later anyway. You will like win98.. very similar to win95
Remind me never to piss you off... :D

Well the guy assured me the second visit that the CD Writer would work with 95 and the box said it would :)

Darlin you could never make me angry.... :kiss:

I want to know what "naff off" means. I can guess, but I won't *really* know until T.H. tells me...

"They can get stuffed if they think I'm gonna buy any more products from them."

or

"They can piss off if they think I'm gonna buy any more products from them."


Make sence now. :)
 
Just buy a digital camcorder, new ones have usb cables to hook up for a pc cam, and you can also print stills from any frame on it.
Best pc pic you can get is thru digital camcorder.

;)
 
So.. T.H.

If I was to help you get that web cam operating I suppose I would be first in line to see that it works properly.
Hmmmmmmmmmm?
:devil: :kiss:

It depends on what you call your house plants and cat. Is that how Kiwi ladies refer to their naughty parts? :)

Of course I would not want you to be embarassed but bare assed naked would be cool..

Damn I guess it does have to work both ways doesn't it.
That means I will have to fix my hair or lack therof and check to make sure there is no lettuce stuck between my teeth. lol
Hey wait I can just have it show from the neck down. Then I don't have to worry about that stuff..lol

The pimpley faced geek at Best Buy told me that none of my scanner, printer, or software would work with my new PC. He said they were not XP compatible..Liar.They all were fine.
The Dipshit that served me today had a badge that said he had done software and hardware training.... :rolleyes:
 
LOL. emerald eyed

I sometimes think they came right from the checkout line at the local supermarket and put out there to sell computers.

The only checkout they come from is" I have zits so I must know about computers." :rolleyes:
 
Good

As luck would have it they are shaved smooth like a babies bottom.
Although I guess I best clean up the office area. it looks pretty damn junky right now.
nooooo wait I can just hang a sheet or two behind me.. Hell I am not lazy... lol
 
Allllrrrrrrighhhtttyyyy Theennnnn

I will take that as a challenge.
I will help you get set up with your webcam. When it is running we will try it out.
If we have lots of trouble then I might have to fly over to New Zealand and install the hard ware myself.
Over and over and over again. :p

Sexy Maple Man I'll install your hardware anytime..... oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah....
:kiss: :p :kiss:
 
I can't believe the things I see and hear at Lit.

People flirt with each other, have cybersex, whatever that is, and phonesex too.

And now people are talking about being naked in front of a webcam? What's a webcam? Why would people be naked on them?

Why not raise a stink with the manager and make them give you a full version of Win98 for free? :D You spent enough money on them following their bad advice.

I already have 98 sitting here, I loaded it about a year or so ago but had trouble with my scanner so took it off. But Thumbs told me today the trouble might of been I did not update the scanner drivers at the same time, so I might just have to try again. :)
