Windows comes with Administrator as default user. I thought it would be nice to be more personalized so, I changed Administrator to my name. All my desktop setting, browser's bookmarks and even some programs all of a sudden vanished. I figured I could restore the registry to earlier time and it would be back to normal but to be on the safe side I called Gateway tech support and this idiot told me that the only solution to this is to reformat the drive and re-install the Windows. (Now a days techs think this is the first line of action and definite sure solution to every computer problem!!! They can never go wrong!!!!!).  It scared me for a minute but decided to restore registry anyway to earlier date and everything worked out just fine. But I can't stop thinking about so called tech support.. Is it really worth calling them?

Ray the Reaper--the Computer User's advocate and "Last Line of Defense"...probably why you had no time to finish 'Pong'..too busy helping Gateway and Dell stay in business.

I can’t wait for the Sesame version of Halo 3 and Sesame Rock Band with @shell to Guitar Hero will be a blast. I even bet if Ray is creating the Sesame Version it will Feature Frank Zappa tunes!
