Well, one of our useful resources has gone the way of Fackbook and other social media sites.

HTG is now a chat and bullshit site. I guess it's about the money, as social sites get more users, but it's very difficult to get technical help on the new site, and all the archives are unavailable. It no longer is just a technical site, and it's a shame.

Sevenforum is now my main squeeze for tech stuff.

RIP HTG. :cry:

This is probably the longest I've ever had a Windows machine run without having to restore it to scratch. I'm used to restoring to "factory" about every 2 yrs. I've run with Win7 since new in 2009 and only recently (Nov, '14) restored to clean up the machine from all my 'xperimenting. LOL!! I may never need another machine.

Upgraded to 10 when it was still free, then installed 2017 update.
HOLY CRAP.... HTG now has an ice cream discussion thread.

Planes are flying upside down.....dogs mating with cats.... HTG is a bullshit site!! What has the world become???
