I am just curious. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/graphic-card-problem-may-affect-millions-of-computers#post-41215 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 18:37:23 +0000 raphoenix 41215@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>drifta,</p> <p>You are VERY CORRECT.</p> <p>It has been that way since day (1) and getting worse.</p> <p>Welcome to the world of computing.</p> <p>Best Regards,<br /> Rick P. </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/graphic-card-problem-may-affect-millions-of-computers#post-41127 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 16:37:13 +0000 drifta 41127@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Big companies keep thinking about their own asses instead of helping the general public </p> http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/topic/graphic-card-problem-may-affect-millions-of-computers#post-41123 Sat, 09 Aug 2008 16:24:09 +0000 Lighthouse 41123@http://www.howtogeek.com/forum/ <p>Hi Rick.
