You must have all kinds of issues if rebooting is not a good thing.

Good luck!

I think he means reformatting = reboot. i used to work for dell tech support and got people calling all the time saying "i need help rebooting my computer" and after about the 4th or 5th call u just assume if they need help with it, they probably mean reformat =p

Ahhh, I see. I was thouroughly confused. I couldnt understand what kind of pc he was using that was good enough to multibox that took more than a min or so to reboot.

Three commas, no caps, and not a single period.

My brain hurts. Yanking the plug on a computers never a good thing, feeling compelled to shut it down so baddly that you would rather just yank the plug amazes me... My machines haven't been turned off for any significant amount of time in years (save moving, etc)... with power saving settings you really can leave them running 24x7 with barely a notable change in your power bill.

Reminds me of my wife and I with the kids when they were younger. Seemed only we knew what the 1.5 yr old is saying. To most folks he sounded like a murlock "Garbubulelue" what is that Lassie? you want fries from McDonalds and world peace?

I think you are right he must mean reformatting.
