  1. thinking about going to the apple side

    Good attitude. You want people to read and understand what you say? Then organize it with the device called a paragraph, so it can be easily understood and absorbed. Otherwise, people, including myself, will just gloss over or skip reading it entirely, making any of your points "mute".
  2. thinking about going to the apple side

    So, because you hate working on (repairing) laptops, this somehow translates into Macs are better? Just asking... I, myself, do not relish working on (repairing) laptops, either, but that has never led me to think that PCs are better than Macs...
  3. thinking about going to the apple side

    No question that Apple makes nice hardware. But, you say, you've waited up to five days for repairs? My goodness, I've never waited for repairs on my PC. I do them myself. Because I can.
  4. thinking about going to the apple side

    Sooooo..... it wants to avoid unpalatable truths... ? bwahahahahahahahah!!!!!!! Just kidding... :Big Laugh
  5. Working on my first vehicle wrap

    Copyright and trademark are two separate and distinct things. Copyright protects a work, not an idea or concept. Trademark protects an idea or concept. If you created your own t-rex, but it looked very similar to the Jurasic trademark, then you would not be infringing anyone's copyright...
  6. Gotta love the people at zoning...

    In Canada, there is a little-known legal device that, if you have something similar in the U.S., you may be able to take advantage of. While I'm not sure of all the ins and outs, it goes something like this: If you are having difficulty getting a public servant to address issues, there is a...
  7. Working on my first vehicle wrap

    She would have to be a lawyer specializing in patent and trademark law. Particularly trademark issues. Any other lawyer would just be guessing -- unless they went away for a while and edjumacated themselves in the areas of interest.
  8. Working on my first vehicle wrap

    No amount of skill, however much, will ever be a substitute for originality.
  9. Grammar question!!

    It's more accurate to say the neither way is wrong in and of themselves. But both ways do have different and distinct meanings as outlined above.
  10. Grammar question!!

    Well, it just all depends how the client wants it to read. Plural or Possessive. I've never known there to be a right and wrong way. Personally, I always have made these type signs as plural -- meaning this is the place where Thompsons (plural) live. Using the possessive form is maybe a bit...
  11. Monitor won't wake up

    We have several Dell monitors and never a problem. However, I'm thinking that the issue is that the computer hibernates before it tells the monitor to put itself into standby mode. Out computers are set to never hibernate -- Windows really doesn't (in my experience) do that well. But we do...
  12. Can't see/use multiple font styles

    Ok, here's how to fix these fonts. I found a free OpenType editor for windows here. Download it and install it. (If you already don't have a font editor installed.) Freshly extract the three OTF files from the Duke.zip file to somewhere like your desktop. Start Type Lite and File/Open the...
  13. Can't see/use multiple font styles

    The reason this is happening is because the creators of the fonts named them whacky... All three fonts are named internally as Duke Family. But the subfamily names are Regular, Fill, and Shadow. My guess is that most software is looking for Bold, Italic, Oblique, Strong, etc. but not Fill and...
  14. Another Font ID

    Benguiat, as it is otherwise known....
  15. how do i get this effect with text?

    Confirmed a troll by post #2...
  16. Can't see/use multiple font styles

    perhaps they are there "hiding" as the "bold" and "italic" selections...
  17. Font Help Please

    On the off-chance this might be a mix of fonts, the "V" looks a lot like Aurora BdCn BT <edit> Ok, never mind...
  18. New shop toys for christmas!

    I used to take great delight in lifting the bucket off its cradle, then, with my masterful control of the hydraulics, take the bucket in a straight line to its working position with the boom opening/lifting/rotating simultaneously in varying degrees. Well, maybe I was only impressing myself... :)
  19. Gods of the fonts! Help is needed!

    Who/What is Hova?
  20. Need toy Box trucks or Semis

    Do you mean like this... ? Or something entirely different?
