stupid, stupid, stupid people....
as you all know i couldn't possibly get all my folding power from my own rigs, so for some of rigs i build for clients, i usually throw on folding as a service.
well anyways, she's does alittle email, msn, and all the stuff a 14 year old would (its her OWN machine she bought it all without any help from mom or dad)
well to make a long story short her stupid brother who's in college is home for the holiday, and when she woke up this morning, he told her he had deleted a "bunch of stuff" which she didnt need anymore because it was "slowing down" her computer and now he "fixed it" so it would run alot better.
what an idiot. the thing hasnt locked up or acted up once since i built it, and that was over a month ago... she uses it everyday and every this girl see's me at school she comments on how much she loves the little thing and how great it runs.
i dont get where this guy goes about deleting something he doesnt understand... folding takes up at most 4000k of memory.. oh cry me a river, she's got 256mb of DDR in there, and its not like she would even notice ANYway.
sorry if this is a bit long but i just lost a 1.3ghz of cure finding power for my grandpa because some smuck thinks he's some all-knowing computer god.
