Take your pick, Sparky. I believe either will do perfectly well.

We need a new phrase.

Trolling while simulatenously whining in the group can now be correctly
termed, labeled or addressed as "going Irene."

i.e.- "darn, Tom, don't go Irene on me."

i.e.- "Notan, I know you're pissed, but there's no real need to go Irene
over it."

i.e.- "don't make me GO IRENE on your ass."

The implication being, don't upset me to the point where I'll stay around
and annoy you in length and duration more thoroughly than a Jehovah's
witness pitbull.

You are an annoying, pompous, no-life pain in the ass to continue taking
such an intellectual beating so publicly.

I hope your mother is proud because you are making a complete jackass of
yourself.

If you missed an earlier post:

I *never* said that *all* drivers (especially third-party) were available.

You asked me, "... ALL drivers for the original configuration of you computer?"

Every driver, for every one of *my* computers, is available.

If that's the case, you've just defined yourself as a Dellbot.

"Dellbot" is now name calling. Here, I thought it was an identifier placed
on certain members of this group by other members of this same group.

Guess, I was wrong. >GR<

I don't think I've read one constructive posting by Irene in this thread. This
blabbing on and on incessantly is the mark of a true TROLL. This newsgroup
would have a higher percentage of useful posted messages if all trolls would go

Who cares what is legal or not legal in the marketplace? Look at
MicroSoft. It is a legaly recognized monopoly that is still allowed
to exist as one.
